  Rayna-isms
Rayna uses much vocabulary that she clearly doesn't understand yet!...

A few days ago, she was being difficult while I was working with the horses, so I told her she had to leave the corral. Rather than waiting for me outside the corral fence, she stomped into her grandparents house and in reply to their quizzical expression, she announced, "I LOST MY ATTITUDE!"

After she had had time to chill out, her grandfather asked her if she had found her attitude yet. She smiled and replied that she had!


Usually she is quite sweet with her 'son-boy' (Doug), but, this morning he and she weren't getting along very well at the breakfast table. From the next room, I heard her announcing to Doug, "Usually I like my brother, but today he is being mean and I don't like him!" What a funny way to address him...as though she was talking of someone else!
 
Comments:
I know exactly what Rayna feels sometimes. I, too, lose my attitude when things aren't going my way! Luckily, we do find it again. (Usually kids can find theirs before we adults do, huh?)

  • Annika is my niece. She was born with bilary atresia and had to have her first major surgery at the age of 6 weeks. Just before she turned a year old, she had to have a liver transplant. Two and a half months later, she had to have a second transplant. Now, five years old, she needs a third transplant and her family's insurance is nearly maxed out so a COTA fund has been established to raise the money needed.
    (Please click on the little bear button above to donate to her COTA account or to view the raffles and other projects that are in progress to build the fund. If you have crafts, etc, that you could donate to be sold/raffled, this would also help greatly!)
