Our Kids

Lela has always been more sensitive than Piper about everything.  She can sense when someone is down and is the first to help out.  When my grandma was here and fell at night, Lela woke us up and alerted us to what happened.  She is also the one that is scared easier, a little more shy and needs a bit more time to adjust to change.  None of it is unwanted behavior, it is just how she is different than Piper.

Well she has started to sway when she is nervous or thinks she might become nervous.  For the past couple weeks I have been saying “do you have to potty” all the time until I figured out it is her coping mechanism kicking in for whatever reason.  When she was really little she would hit her head, gently, on her car seat or high chair and the doctor said it was just her coping mechanism.  She still does it but it has become a cute little sway that she does.
