Belle, My Princess (February 2009)

Belle has such a bright and sunny personality. She is truly a joy. Here are some recent Belle moments I want to remember as her mother, because these moments are dear to my heart, and have blessed my life: 1. When she and I took mini pizzas to Books's class and she followed me all the way there and back so quietly, and then when she saw Books, she offered to let him hold "Ella" her Cinderella doll. 2. When she pretends she is talking on the phone. She does it so well, today I had to do a double take to make sure she wasn't really talking to someone on one of our phones, especially when she said "335-4398, uh huh..." 3. When she says, "Mommy I need you". 4. When someone comes in the door and she runs to give them a big hug and say, "I missed you". 5. When she sings her ABC's. 6. When she got 3 shots and her blood drawn in one day and never cried, unless I put her down. 7. When she runs to see me when I pick her up from Nursery. 8. When she calls herself "Princess (Belle) or "Jujubee". 9. When she calls Sleeping Beauty "Shake Yr Butie". 10. When I holler "Dinner is ready" and she comes running and tells everybody "Dinnert!" 11. When she sat perfectly quiet and still in a shopping cart (which I know she doesn't like) so she could get a lollipop. 12. When she helps me tuck in her "Brudders". 13. When we went to see Belle from Beauty and the Beast at Disney and she didn't want to see Ariel, so she ran past her to Belle, and Belle laughed and said, "Who's your princess?" and she promptly turned around and pointed to me. 14. When she prays she often says, "will you help me?" 15. When she wakes up in the morning, she is so excited to see everyone. 16. When you give her something and she says, "Thank you so much!" 17. When she sings "The Cuppycake Song" or "You're My Berry Best Friend". 18. When she jumps while singing "Sunbeam". 19. When she says, "Mommy, I need some lovin's" and then crawls up on my lap.

  1. Hi Marcy,
    What a sweet little girl. My mom recently told me about this idea she read in a magazine where you decorate a jar and everytime your child does something cute or you have a special memory you write it down and put it in the jar. I guess it would be a memory jar. Then when the child grows up you open it up and read all the memories. I thought that was such a cute idea, if I ever have kids I am going to do that.
