Where's Daddy?

Lily is mimicking words lately and has absolutely connected the word Daddy to the person. Oh it is just so precious. In the evenings before Bob comes home I start asking Lily, "Where's Daddy?" Just this week she has started calling for him. She crawls around the house calling for "Daaaadee". I have found her at the gate at the top of our stairs several times calling for him and pointing at the door. PRECIOUS!


A couple of nights ago she was really calling for him so I took her over to the window and we watched for Daddy's bike to come down the road. She stood there beside me just calling and calling for Daddy. "Daaaadee, Daaaaadee, Daaaaadee."



It started to get a little sad because Daddy was taking longer than I expected. The poor dear was just desperate.

Once Bob came down the road, she was elated and smiled while calling for him through the window. She moseyed on over to the gate and anxiously awaited him. She has also taken to calling for him periodically throughout the day and sadly "Daddy's at work," doesn't assuage her need. How special to see the love she has for her Daddy.
