Little Ramona Quimby

Beebster is Ramona Quimby. Ramona the Pest. 

Maddie and Faith have always reminded me of those awesome Beverly Cleary books of long ago-- the Beezus and Ramona books. Too bad there isn't a third sister to that duo! Dan and I were just laughing though about how pesty Faith can be with her beloved Dee at times!

She adores her Dee. She idolizes her Dee. And, at the same time, she loves to irritate her Dee. Maddie was ecstatic this afternoon because Faith came out to join her for 'quiet time' (since Faith's naptime was erased due to poop as usual). They were all excited and ready to play Littlest Pets. Within 20 minutes though Maddie was complaining that Faith was "being mean to me again!" and Faith kept getting in Maddie's face saying "Dee? Dee? Dee, happy?" because she wanted to see if Maddie was happy with her again. Hahaha.

At this very moment though, the little "pest" is sleeping. Sleeping with her fake, plastic, and quite yellow watch that she won at the garden party LAST Wednesday and STILL has not taken off of her wrist. Sleeping with her Bashful all wrapped up in a blanket next to her and tucked under her arm (she emerged from her room crying earlier because Bashful had become unwrapped from the blanket!). And, sleeping with her head on big Beezus' stomach. 

She may be a pest at times, but she just loves her Beezus.
