My Other Favorite

Last week I shared that I had a favorite child~ Zoe.

.

But today I must share with you all my other favorite child- my Naomi.

.

Naomi has had a busy past week that I would love to share with you, because you can learn a lot about Naoi and why she's my favorite just by knowing her week. First off, she was elected class Princess and on May Day, walked the court with the Prince.

But one of the things I love about Princess Naomi is that if she pulled the above dress up a few inches, it would show her scraped up and bruised knees. Naomi can be found outside most days, climbing trees, scootin' on her scooter, roller blading, jogging with her sister- you name it. I love her for being a princess when she wants and also playing rough & tough.

.

Another thing about Naomi is that, well- she may have shot my theory about Zoe so willingly going to the back of the line on Field Day because her last name starts with W and elementary school teachers always have their students lined up alphabetically. Because Naomi ran to the front of the line every time. Naomi is a go getter for sure.

And as much as I adore and admire Zoe for being too sweet to be competitive, because really- I think that's awesome....

.

I also love and admire Naomi for her competitive spirit.

.

Watch her cross her fingers before the 100 yard dash. She wants this thing!!

.

And watch how once she loses her shoe, she really takes off. She won 2nd place but I am pretty sure she would have took the race if it weren't for that (untied) shoe.

.

But if you really wanted Naomi in a nut shell- or in half of a 20 second video- this would be it.

Because even though she was not the star of the show, in the end, she can pretend she was, and make the best of it. And that, I can relate to more than anything, and that is why she's my favorite child.
