Well, for Thanksgiving we did not go to Ohio to be with my family as we usually do. We are trying to keep things as simple as possible for Mekdes and traveling seemed to be a bit too much. Shawn did a great job preparing the turkey and making the traditional "Davis stuffing". Everything was delicious. Mekdes found the whole thing to be rather odd. She ate some of the corn casserole and that was about it. Her tastes have expanded to include bread/dabo, bananas/mooze, scrambled eggs, pop corn, candy/carmela and of course, gum/mastica. We put the tree up the other day and that was really confusing! Why is there a tree in the house, covered in lights and why are we putting balls/kwas all over it? Each day is full of surprises--new foods, new words, new looks! I am dreading tomorrow as the girls will all be going back to school. Mekdes cries any time one of the girls leaves, so I hate to think of what she will be like come Monday morning! Thus far, I have been using the ol' American bribe of candy/carmela when she is crying at the departure of a sister. At some point, I have to suck it up and come up with another method of parenting--ha!!!
