Tales of Life with a Girl on the Go

I forgot about this when I wrote about Reid’s checkup but it’s worth a post of it’s own.

During the doctor’s examination of Reid, he spoke directly to her. He told her what he was going to do and why and he asked her a couple of questions. When he asked her if she had a special friend, I wondered if she’d name L, from her old day care, name someone from her new day care, especially the new L, or say that she didn’t have a new, special friend yet. Reid didn’t hesitate, though, before saying, “My mama”. She looked at me and smiled while she said it. My heart melted a bit and the doctor smiled and said, “She said that on her own. I didn’t offer her candy or anything.” I don’t know how long this treasured status will last but I’m loving it right now.
