Felicity Jane, 21-ish months







This girlie! Well, I have to say I've never had this kind of an experience with a child of this age. In a word, Felicity is DELIGHTFUL! Everywhere I take her she has people wrapped around her finger in minutes...or less even. Grocery stores, church, her nursery class, my preschool class, even her big brothers. She is loving and engaging, obedient (by far the most in the family), bright, happy and generally brings smiles to others' faces. She cleans up messes without being asked. Yesterday we were finishing up dinner. She was playing near the table with Jonah. We noticed that she came over and sat herself down in the naughty-spot. When we asked what she was doing, she said, "hit, Jonah, hit" and so she did her self-imposed time and then went and told him she was sorry. She loves her stuffed animals (The one in the video blip is "Quackie")loves singing songs with actions, and she really does it (faves:Mr. Alligator/monkeys, Popcorn Popping, Head Shoulders Knees and Toes, Follow the Prophet), loves popsicles, dancing, hugs and kisses, getting "snuggy" in a "wankie", being outside and daintily splashing in the puddles, puppys, animals in general, saying new words, sitting on her potty (she hasn't done anything in it yet), doing crafts with the four-year-olds at preschool. Jonah and Gid plead for the chance to wake her up in the morning. Jonah is smitten, and Felicity adores him! It makes quite a ruckus when Jonah is passing the sacrament and Felicity is saying, "Where is he, Jonah? Jonah!" the whole time. This is just a great age with her and I wanted to get it in writing.
