Crying craziness


There is a little phrase in Portuguese that says tadinha meaning "poor little..."  This "poor little" girl has been crying for about a week straight.  So we say awwwe tadinha Mia.  She is teething and is in pain and wants to be held.  Yeah, insanity for me, the mom.  This little face has been looking at me and clinging to me 24/7 and literally wants to be attached to me day and night.  As I am writing she was sitting with me and in the last minute has become distracted by a plastic toy ring on the floor so I am quickly finishing up.  Just to write...tadinha de mim.   Awwe "poor me"  (with the 18 m-old leeched on to me)!!  And as difficult as it is I know I will miss it when she stops.
