I had a few proud mommy-moments yesterday with Quinn. She is a sweet quiet little thing-- especially in public. She won't usually participate while at church (even though she sits there reverently, which has been enough for me!). But yesterday-- her name was chosen to participate in a little game we were all playing in sharing time. When her name was chosen, she did it!! She got up and picked a number, and guessed the answer to the question she got! Not only that, but since it's almost her birthday, they sang "Happy Birthday" to her-- and she even stood at the front of the room! Plus she was given a coupon to hand the Bishop in exchange for a treat. I never thought she'd do it- but she did! She even told him how old she was going to be. And willingly talked to one of our friends in the hallway-- who's a guy. AND after bath, she got herself out, dressed herself, brushed her own hair, and threw her towel back into the bathroom. (all things she's capable of, but usually talks one of us into helping her with).
So all these things may seem like no big deal-- unless you know Quinn. Then it's HUGE that she got up in front of the primary and talked to two men without me insisting that she say something back to them.
Sure love my sweet little peanut.
