i just had to post this before i forgot - so cute. this morning as stig was leaving, afer giving the usual round of hugs and kisses before going to work, adella said, "wait, wait, wait!" we waited... "hug!' adella said. so she got another hug. stig started to leave again. "wait, wait, wait!" adella said. "another hug!" so she got another hug. yep. she's learned to use hugs as a stalling technique. she's a smart one - almost impossible to resist. we're off to babysitting co-op this morning - and i've got a window of opportunity to shower while clifford is on. ta ta for now...
