Pretty

for about a month now, I’ve been trying to give Cadence compliments that are unrelated to her appearance. This was in reaction to her saying she was the prettiest all the time. At first, she was mad that I wasn’t saying she was pretty or cute. Then this morning she and steph were playing dolls. Steph asked if she was pretty and Cadence told her she’s other things besides pretty. I’m pretty sure I’m winning at this motherhood thing.

5/1/16 Cadence and I had a “girls’ day” together and started off with some dim sum!
