Our sweet, friendly little girl is finally getting a little more common sense. She is getting a little stranger shy and it was particularly apparent with Santa. We had tried to have her meet Santa at our ward party the morning this picture was taken and she would not have it. At Michael's work party we waited in line with her cousins for a good hour and we tried again mostly for the sake of a good crying Santa picture. I started to feel a little guilty when it was our turn and I saw June's lip start to quiver in anticipation. The last picture is our third attempt with Kate being her guide. She did much better.
As a side note, when I was growing up I used to love holding
any baby I could get my hands on. I was always disappointed when the baby
wanted their mom again. I used to reassure myself thinking that one day I would
be a mom and be a baby’s favorite. As it turns out, June loves to go to other
people and when I reach for her she shakes her head no and laughs.
