It has begun

Today Abigail and I went to have lunch with Joseph at school.  She discovered the toy kitchen area so I spent much of the time watching her there instead of sitting at Joseph's table. He didn't seem to mind.  When it was time to go, Abigail pitched a fit!  I carried her crying from the classroom, through the school, and fought her arched back into the carseat! I have so many memories of carrying Joseph crying from playgrounds, libraries, etc.  So, now that phase has begun with Abigail. I actually find it to be rather adorable--watching her personality emerge and take shape, her opinions and will strengthen. I know I won't always find it so endearing, but maybe because I know it is a phase, or maybe because it is just the beginning, at least today I find it enjoyable.


Abigail also loved the play kitchen in Grandma Charlotte and Grandpa Bill's playroom:
