Ivory of Late

My sweet little girl has been more then a little grouchy, whining and demanding since the arrival of her little brother.  She does love him very much...just not all the change his coming has brought.  This little cold she's caught...for the second time...hasn't helped any.
These are her constant companion--and heaven help you if you happen to take it without authorization...or tell her she must leave them behind on any given occasion.
Thankfully, these make the other moments much more bearable.
And she can still be quite silly.
And nothing slows this fireball down.
She still surprises me with what she learns.  The other day she looks at me while eating lunch and signs "E" as she says it.  I didn't know she knew that sign.  Then, she proceeded to learn how to sign A, B, I, V, O, R, Y, blue, brown, and green.  All in one sitting.  She's a little sketchy on some of them and her little fingers don't always cooperate when she tries to fingerspell, but she is still quick as a whip.  She's so fun and smart.
