i am the cool aunt

This is Addyson.  She's almost 2 years old.  She's my youngest niece.  Her older sister, Sydney, and I were playing with Garage Band last night.  We were recording ourselves saying funny things using the helium voice setting.  Addyson thought this was the funniest thing!  She would cover her mouth with both hands and laugh dramatically.  She is stubborn and willful.  She's nothing like me really...  Kids are interesting.  I watch her develop bad habits to achieve her own goals.  I just want to scream and say to her, "Addy don't do that!  Save yourself the time of unlearning that later in life."  But I choose not to scream.  I resort to hugging, loving, kissing... and correcting when necessary.  Its necessary a lot.  I want her to know she is loved and cherished so that she will know how to love others.  I want to teach her how to make good choices.  I want her to respect herself and others.  When she's older I'll tell her about Jesus.  Maybe she'll be more inclined to follow and trust Jesus if she can learn these things early.  That's my prayer for her and her sister.
