I have to admit, I never laughed so hard as when I was getting scolded by a 3 1/2 year old (in Russian) over a BOW!!!! I know I should not have laughed, but you had to see her face. It all started when she came out with this HUGE bow in her hair. Now, Cassidy has very fine hair - and because of that they usually put her hair in pigtails (they stay in easier). But not today. Today she had a huge white bow on the top of her head, and every time she would tumble into the ball pit, or jump after the balloon it would fall out. Then she would pick it up, bring it to Dennis (and then Dennis sent her my way - he has no clue how to wrap a bow in her hair). So finally after the 3rd time, I just took it out of her hair and put it on the table. Well - Let's just say that is NOT how you do things at her children's home!!! Nyet Mama, NYET!!!! Then she started rambling (in Russian of course) then huffed, and stomped away from me. TOO FUNNY. Eventually I did have to put the bow back in her hair because she kept trying to do it herself and was obviously not going to give up until she completed her mission!!!
(just thought you might like to see how BIG the bow was - not exactly a child's size - HA HA)
Anyway, Dennis and I think she is starting to get used to us. We are trying to stay consistent with her schedule, and believe it or not, we have already had to tell her Nyet (No) a few times.
We can't wait for her to come home. Her brothers are going to go CRAZY over her.
We will continue to keep you posted.
