Sweet Sophia

I thought I would catch you up on some of the latest things Sophia is doing.

While we were gone in the Bahama's she decided that she needed to have her music play all night long. So, she would get up out of bed and hit the repeat button. Since then, she has realized that you need to hit that button twice so you hear the whole entire CD over.....not just the song that was currently playing. She also went through another "It's too dark in my room" phase. I could tell during the month of October that Sophia really did not like all the talk about monsters, witches and ghosts. She would also get up and turn the hallway light on. I told her that she could not keep doing that. So she now has 3 night lights in her room and that seems to do the trick along with the music playing all night long. Sophia also is showing us that she definitely has musical ability. Since last summer she has been playing very simple songs on the piano. She can play Twinkle, Twinkle with her right hand while playing a single note with her left hand at the same time while keeping rhythm and sing the song as well. She constantly sings the song from Sleeping Beauty. That is her latest fascination. Sleeping Beauty. She is also drawing well. Giving herself and Daddy black hair and black eyes, Mommy and Sissy yellow hair and blue eyes and Daniel brown hair and brown eyes. Her preschool teacher told me she was the only one in the class that has such fine thought for detail. Sophia also still talks about the moon. The other day when I said "sweet dreams", she told me she was going to dream about walking on the moon. The two places she talks about wanting to go are China and the Moon. She is also VERY excited for Christmas this year. She remembers Santa from last year and told me over the weekend that she wants a Princess Guitar. (she saw one in a magazine) Oh yes...that's another thing she does. I'm sure as you all know this time of year, ones mail box seems to be flooded with all sorts of magazines. She'll pick one if she has the chance and ask if she can take it upstairs at nap time to look through until she falls asleep. She couldn't wait to show me the Disney Princess Guitar. I said "Honey....it says you should be 8 to have that".....her response...."Oh pleeeeez Mom, you have to let me ask Santa". lol So.....you all know the answer to that one don't you? Cha Ching! ;) She also keeps telling me how much she loves babies....every time she see's a little one she reminds me that she wants a baby too. Wouldn't that be something if Santa could deliver a picture of one to us before Christmas? It is the season of "HOPE"......so we shall see. ;)
