GUM

I don’t think that I wrote about this but if I did, forgive me.  On Friday when we went to pick Ella up from school, Alicia told us that Ella had 2 accidents.  She then told us that she and Ella came up with a way to hopefully stop the accidents.  Ella now has a new job at school.  The job is going to the bathroom.  Every time Ella goes to the bathroom on the toilet, Alicia gives her a star.  If she has 3 stars at the end of the day, then Ella gets (she picked this herself) a piece of gum.  Ella hasn’t chewed gum yet, so we thought that was a great idea.  Today when we picked her up, it was reported that Ella got 3 stars!  She chewed her first piece of gum, loved it and of course, swallowed it.  Check the video at the end of this entry, it’s pretty funny.

Tonight, Becca’s sister Leslie got married to her partner Jenny at City Hall.  We  all went and it was really sweet.  Mostly, people were standing and watching the ceremony, but there were a few people sitting in a u shape of chairs.  Becca was one of those people.  Ella was reaching for Becca, so I gave Ella to Becca.  Becca had her on her lap for a minute but then Ella told her that she wanted to sit in the seat next to her.  Ella sat there for the entire ceremony and looked so incredibly cute and sweet.  She was so well behaved and we were shocked.    What a great night.
