The Question phase....

Abigail is 3 now which means we are in the middle of the questioning phase.  "Why Mommy? Why?"  All day long!  She is so stinkin smart though.  She doesn't just want the usual "because Mommy said so" answer.  She truly wants to know why?  We were at a stoplight and she said "Mommy, why did you stop?"  I explained that red means stop and that is the rule. Green means go was the next conversation so now I have a backseat driver.  ;) "Mommy, its red...Stop!"  hahaha... she keeps me on my toes for sure!  She also listens to everything we say. She may not obey it but she definitely hears it. 
Today, for example, she starting talking about colors. She was very nonchalant about colors and then she said "Mommy, my birthmoms black."  I really was taken back by this.  She repeated it and then I kinda freaked out about it internally.  I took a deep breath and then said..."yes, baby she is black but I am your mommy and always will be." God loves all of us and doesn't care what color we are....etc... She really didnt know exactly what all that meant because then she said I was pink and Tai was blue. (the clothes we were wearing.) She really just heard what we were saying to some other friends recently.  When we talk about our adoption story we tell others about their backgrounds (if they ask about ethnicities).  She simply was just repeating what we said. BUT I know this topic will be addressed again soon.  I need to read up on how to explain it age appropriately.  She is too young to hear some stuff right now. Man, she is growing up too fast!!

Tai is so funny. He is at a really cute phase.  Man o man he is one active boy who has a mission every day to "seek and destroy".  Non-stop action with giggles and so many more words.. (ba)nana, outside, up/down, mama, dada, dog, good-girl, kiss, shoes, juice, milk, oh, ......  AND he can count to 10 (kinda). 

Love them both soooo much! time is flying by so fast.

***that is all for now.
