F2F Class Notes 12th October (Celeste) [3]

Edited

My daughter, Olivia, likes different jewelry, even though she is 4 years old. She always tries to wear my jewelry such as rings, earrings, and bracelets. I think most girls like jewelry even if they are babies. She is spoiled by her grandparents. When we go out she will want us to buy many toys for her even if she doesn’t deserve them. Especially when she spends time with her grandparents, if they don’t buy stuff/things/toys for her, she will cry.

Most of the time, she will stay with me and my husband. My mom and dad will come for around one week, to take care of Olivia.

She also likes small electronics, like phones and iPads. She will play games on my phone and iPad.  Sometimes, she will wear my glasses, she thinks this is very fashionable.
