I've been reading through some posts I didn't publish. This was written October 6, 2012.
I have posted a lot about Ellee's gift of knowing when and how to comfort me. Yesterday I had another experience I want to always remember about Ellee. I was laying on the couch, taking a moment for myself, as the kids played around me. My thoughts drifted to Tesslee and my eyes began to well up with tears. At the exact moment when tears filled my eyes, Ellee, who had her back turned to me and was playing with the kids, dropped what she was doing, ran over to me and kissed my forehead, placed her head onto mine, and then said "Want Tesslee?" I said, "Yes." She ran and got her blanket, pillow, and TessleeBear and dragged them over to me. She placed them in my arms and then gave me another hug. I have no doubt in my mind that she was given the special gift of being aware of my needs and is the physical person who is capable of giving me comfort from Tesslee when I need it.
