So Perceptive

This morning Adrienne and I got up and made breakfast as usual. We normally make Regis an espresso during this time and bring it to him to help ease the transition of getting out of bed (And yes, even an almost 2-yr old can make an espresso with the nespresso machine. Genius, I tell you). This morning, however, we discovered that daddy's coffee pods were all out.  "Uh Oh, Adrienne, Daddy's coffee is all gone", I told her.  She looked up at me and said in a serious and matter-of-fact voice, "Daddy cry". For those of you who know Regis, you know that he very well may cry if he doesn't have his morning espresso. So a perceptive and empathetic sentiment coming from a 2 yr old, don't you think? I spend a lot of time thinking about who Adrienne is, what she likes, how her personality will be, how we will shape it and guide her development. It's good to be reminded that she is watching us closely as well.
