Posted on August 3, 2009August 3, 2009 by Shireen

Alycia is VERY possessive of Baby. She will get upset and furious if Sherilyn gets too close to Baby! Everyday, she will bug me to allow her to get into the playpen to play with Baby, hug her and kiss her. The way she hugs Baby is just like how she hugs her dolls or a puppy….

Posted on March 14, 2009 by Shireen

Yesterday just before going for ballet, Sherilyn told me that she felt cold. I thought that it was just the weather as there was just a downpour and it was really breezy and cold.
