Halo


She looks so sweet and innocent...she is a terminator child.
She terrorizes Jordan by taking his video games and hiding them under her bed.
She sneaks mascara and I find her fingerprints in my lipgloss.
She crashed into my big toe, ripping my toe nail off- just in time for summer sandals.
She calls her dad...and he comes running.
Today at the beach she was chasing boys in the water.
She changes her bathing suit five times a day, and must have a matching skirt for each bikini.
Today, she said, "Mommy, you are such a bad girl" when I took a sip of her water.
While driving in the car, she insists on turning the radio off and begs to listen to Katy Perry on my ipod.
We fight to put her hair in a pigtail..she prefers it down in hair-flip mode.
She's been wearing sandals that are two years old and that don't fit, because they have a butterfly on them.
After looking in the mirror and noticing a mosquito bite on her forehead, she came to me in tears and said, "I'm UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGLLLLLLLLLY!!!!!"
Today, she dressed herself in Jordan's American Flag belt and proudly did the Miss Italy twirl and handwave.
She puts Brie in baby diapers and sings her lullabies.
When polishing her nails, each hand must be a different color.

I have no idea where she came from, I was a born tomboy- give me a ball and bat and show me the way to homeplate.
Give Sofia anything fuscia, shiny or frilly...and she will love you for life.

And THAT...is my girl.
