anna and me

anna is definitely her mother's daughter. here are just some of our similarities:

• we sing in the car and we sing loud
• we dance around the house
• when shawn finally gets settled down to watch a show, we both seem to always ask for a drink or a treat and typically we whine (he is good too, he usually gets us what we "need")
• we are both pretty social creatures
• we always want to be involved in some kind of a project
• she looks just like me when i was her age
• she is terrified to get in trouble (not at home, but anywhere else--school)
• we are sensitive
• we don't like to pick up
• we are touchy, huggy people
• we are particular about food
• we yell at the tv thinking the people will hear us and do what we are telling them to do (run!...move!...he's coming!)--it is quite hilarious to watch anna watch a new show
• we sometimes organize but mostly we are just unorganized--scattered

i love you anna. i am so glad you are mine. happy birthday (i know, this is late...)
