Littlest O,
You are EXPLODING with personality. Sassy and sarcastic, so you fit right in. You just commented to N, "Freaking heck, N. Your hair is SOOOO messy." With all the attitude of a teenager. Oh boy.
I LOVE YOU,
Love,
Mom

Oh N,
It has been a year and a half since I have posted to the sillies blog. I need to do better! But I had to write this gem before it gets lost in the chaos of life. Today, when getting into the car from school, you held up a tooth necklace and proudly proclaimed, "I lost my first tooth!". You were jubilant. I was shocked! I had no clue that you even had a wiggly tooth, let alone one so close to coming out. When we later shared the news with Dad, he wanted a closer look. Yet, there wasn't anything to see... No hole. No adult tooth peeking through. No evidence that would point at a lost tooth. So we counted. You still had every pearly white baby tooth in your mouth. When I open the tooth necklace and inspected the tooth, I discovered that it was, if fact, a rock. A rock that eerily resembled a tooth. It was at this point that you broke down sobbing, telling us that you "just wanted to lose a tooth already like everybody else". N, you initially convinced not only Mom and Dad, but teachers as well. You are too sneaky.
Love one who HAS lost her baby teeth,
Mom

Miss O,
You do well with saying your siblings' names. You don't even use nicknames. But you struggle with Cuca. Whom you try to call Cuca. The only problem is that you don't know how to make the hard C sound. You've learned to adapt, though, and instead say his name with two tongue clicks. They even include "oo" and "ah" at the end of each click. It's hilarious.
Love,
Mom
