Nora can be quite bossy, very bossy actually. I guess she got that from me as I always tell her to do or not to do things.

But I also show her lots of love and she knows that I care… that is why she is very bossy in a very caring way. Here are a few stories…

I was chatting to Liz, Nathaniels mom yesterday. We were in the same antenatal classes, and then baby yoga classes and now Nora and Nate are in the same nursery.

Anyway, Liz told me that there was one time when she picked Nate up, Nora was very attentive towards Nate. She helped check that Nate is securely in his buggy and then blew him a kiss.

There was another time when Matt, Nate’s dad, picked him up, Nora ran after them with a hat saying it’s Nate’s hat. Matt told her not to worry as it’s not Nate’s hat, until he took it (as she was very persistent), had a look and realized that it is Nate’s hat!

When we were at Ivy’s birthday party, I was holding little Ivar. Nora came over and I said, look baby and was worried she’ll get jealous. She went off and a few moments later came back with a toy for Ivar. She did give me a couple more minutes with Ivar before asking me to pick her up.

I don’t like Nora sticking her tongue out or do a raspberry, and she knows that. So when we (Nora, Jules and I) were sitting on the sofa and Jules and Nora started making faces at each other and then sticking tongues out at each other, I just let it be… until she turned and stuck her tongue out at me. I told her sternly ‘No, Nora’ and she immediately turned to Jules and said ‘No, daddy’ wagging her finger at him. See… she does care about what I think.
