Today I had a new babysitter come to the house to watch Cambria for a couple hours. I have only left her with a handful of people in her life (2 of them being my mom and Dave's mom! And another person who is a pediatric nurse!). But my regular babysitter that we've had for 8 years is most likely moving to a different state soon. I had to have a surprise root canal done 2 weeks ago, and I realized I need a babysitter for emergencies. I can't exactly take her with me for that! So my friend who also has 3 sons and a baby girl recommended this woman who also watches her kids. She also works at a preschool part-time, so she's been screened already.
Anyways, she did great with Cambria, and Cambria had fun playing with her and only cried when the babysitter put her down for a nap! She was having too much fun playing! Anyways, the babysitter looked at Cambria and then at me and said.......
(What do you think she said?!)
"Cambria looks just like you!"
It is funny how many people have said this to me in the past couple months.
I texted her birth mom a picture of Cambria on Valentine's Day. She texted me back and said she knew Cambria had beautiful blue eyes, but until she saw this picture and her eyes up close, she hadn't realized just how beautiful her blue eyes really are! They are amazing, and her eyes are a unique shape too.
I also told her how much we love Cambria, and how even though she is almost 17 months old, I still, to this day, upon walking into her bedroom when she wakes up in the morning, can't believe that I have a daughter! She texted back and said I'm a great mother to Cambria.
Awww!! So sweet! :) Like I always say, adoption done right is a beautiful thing.
