Gettin' beat up by a 1 year old!

So yesterday Ella and I went over to visit Betsy and Noura before they leave for a mission trip in Africa for 5 months! I will miss them terribly... but I'm not so sure that Ella feels the same way. When we left their house, she asked that we not hang around that tough bully Noura anymore... I had a talk with her about growing thicker skin, and about learning to love the unloveable... To the average joe... Noura is ANYTHING but unloveable... but to Ella... well... you'll understand her feelings when you see the video below.

(pause the music in the right-hand column to hear the video)



(Don't miss the post below with videos of Ella and her Great-Grandparents... they were much nicer to her!)

Oh the abuse! You know Peter just loves Ella. He looks at her picture on the frig and reaches for her. And every time you post a video he is just mesmerised by her. We are loving your videos.

from Noura:
"Dear Ella, I greatly apologize for beating you up. I forgot you were smaller than me, and obviously not willing to fight back. I hope to have better manners when I get back from Africa so you will play with me."
