I didn&#8217;t know whether to laugh or let myself tear up. God had given me just what I needed and the moment of \u00a0missing being in the classroom had quickly faded. Lil A has done this a few times since then. And it&#8217;s just so cute. She&#8217;s at the stage where she wants to copy everything that I am doing&#8230;.even makeup. I know that it is a controversial topic among playgroups to even mention that your daughter plays with make-up at two, but honestly it&#8217;s so cute to have her standing on her stool beside me fluffing her face with pink blush. Enough said.<\/p>\n<p>This post is feeling a bit messy in the flow realm, but I guess that&#8217;s what blogging is. Typing from the heart.<\/p>\n<p>When I was a teacher, my first group of students gave me all their crusts on pizza day, because I said I liked crusts as the best part of a pizza. And each year, that same group of children would bring them to me at lunch. I am sure their teachers thought I was crazy, but they let them do it anyway. By the time I was pregnant with Lil&#8217; A, I&#8217;d been teaching for 4 years and I had about 40+ crusts on my desk on pizza day. There were only a few I&#8217;d eat because I had watched how all the children ate, and some kids just eat with less moisture&#8230;.and eat less of the pizza&#8230;meaning I could cut away some of the pizza and still have an &#8220;un-germy&#8221; crust.<\/p>\n<p>Well, the other day, just after the shoe incident, Lil&#8217; A gave me her crusts. And this time, a tear ran down my cheek (I know, over emotional!). But really, it showed me that those moments that I had teaching haven&#8217;t stopped and they are now even more precious to me because they are from my Lil&#8217; A.<\/p>\n<p>My Lil&#8217; A, who has been the reason I started blogging-a way to get out my words, so our Superhero (aka Daddy &amp; Husband) isn&#8217;t so overwhelmed.<\/p>\n<p>My Lil&#8217; A, the one who kicks me in the head with her little feet when she&#8217;s climbed into our bed at 3am cuz her stuffy noise woke her up.<\/p>\n<p>My Lil&#8217; A, the one who has so easily welcomed a little sister, Lil&#8217; E, into our mix!<\/p>\n<p>Yup, I wouldn&#8217;t trade this life for a million bucks. And I really mean that&#8230;.someone out there-try me!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Krystle<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>P.S.
