Two peas in a pod
Wednesday, September 10, 2008 at 9:35PM Eliana has lots of toys. And she plays with them, for about two seconds. Most of the time what she is much more interested in is whatever the big kids are doing. She is able to climb up into their seats at the school table by herself, and she even tries to do it when someone, particularly Michaela, is sitting there. You can imagine how productive an environment that is sometimes for getting any schoolwork done. Michaela is quite the doting mommy sister though. And so very tolerant and sweet. Today we were trying to get through grammar ( a dictation) and Eliana was, indeed, trying to get into Michaela's chair. The morning had not been going well, because of her determination to be in the middle of everything as well as her determination not to take a nap in her bed. So I finally just stuck her in the chair alongside Michaela and gave her a pencil and paper. And that made her happy. 
Eliana loves to be wherever Michaela is. And she really looks up to her big sister. 
Sometimes she takes it one step further and really tries to do exactly what Michaela is doing. And Michaela loves every minute of it.

This is too cute. I love it. I can't wait for Anna to get a little older and see how much she looks up to Evan. I have already witnessed it a little bit in just how much she smiles at him or gets excited when he walks into the room.
Here's the plus - she'll be writing by 18 months if this keeps up!
