Ok, so you know that amazing vintage photo from the stage production of The Warrior’s Husband?

That Amazon energy is now fierce angel energy, and a certain demon is very appreciative.

“Words are, in my not so humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic.” – Albus Dumbledore Giving Stella the ability to express herself has truly ope

Giving Stella the ability to express herself has truly opened up a window to her mind. Everyday we learn more about what Stella thinks, likes, dislikes, and knows. Here are some of our favorite Stella quotes and 7 lessons we’ve learned through her words. I hope you enjoy them as much as we have!

Lesson 1: Stella is funny!

1/29/19: Stella said “Good Stella” and then rolled over for a belly rub.

1/27/19: I said “Stella…Stella…” sternly while she was getting into trouble. Stella walked to

her device and responded “Christina…”

3/2/19: Just like a little kid, Stella insisted “Jake, Jake, Jake, Jake, play” while Jake was busy working at my desk.

2/8/19: I was getting a bath ready when Stella snuck into the bathroom, drank the bath water, and announced “Water good.”

Lesson 2: Stella has good ideas

4/23/19: On my lunch break I had just finished making food when Stella suggested “Eat, outside” and sat in front of the door staring at me. I took her advice and proceeded to bring my food and Stella outside where we had a lovely time sitting in the sun.

2/7/19: I was making rice and then went to the bathroom. The rice began boiling over when I heard Stella say “Help!” right before she ran in front of the stove whining. Thank goodness for Stella looking out for us!

Lesson 3: Stella hates goodbyes

12/29/19: We were getting ready for a hike the day after we picked up Stella from boarding when she said “Come, come, come, come, love you” then sat right in front of the door. I think

she was worried we were leaving without her again!

1/8/19: While grabbing my things to leave for work in the morning, Stella said “Love you, come” while looking as sad as can be. It was never harder leaving for work!

2/26/19: About 5 minutes after Jake left for work, Stella said “Jake, bye, love you.” Then she said “Help” and sulked by the door.

5/3/19: We came back from the airport after dropping off our visiting friends. Stella sniffed the air mattress and then said “Bye, bye.”

5/1/19: Our visiting friends reported that Stella said “Jake, Christina” several times right after we left for work. We missed her too!

Lesson 4: Stella knows our routines

2/23/19: At 5:45 on the dot (the usual time of our weekday alarm), Stella jumped out of bed

and said “Jake, Jake, Christina!” I don’t know why we think we need an alarm clock!

3/10/19: We made dinner way later than usual tonight. Stella said “Eat, no, eat.” Since she also consistently says “eat” while we’re making dinner, I think Stella judges time in the evening based on when we eat dinner.

2/1/19: Stella commanded “Jake, walk, bye, Christina” right before going on a walk with Jake in the morning.

3/22/19: Every morning we leave Stella with her Kong toy filled with some peanut butter. I ended up being home longer than usual this morning. Stella said “Bye, Stella, eat” then whined. She was ready for me to go so she could get her peanut butter!

Lesson 5: Stella has opinions

1/29/19: Stella said “Outside.” I said “Hang on Stella…” and she immediately responded “No.”

Stella waits for no one.

3/2/19: Stella chugged some water from her dish and then declared, “Water, good”.

1/24/19: Stella said “Play” so I gave her a toy, and she clarified “No, eat” to request her ball filled with food.

2/16/19: While my sister and brother-in-law were visiting, Stella kept cuddling with them on the couch, jumping off to say “Love you,” and running back to cuddle more.

Lesson 6: Stella pays attention:

5/3/19: I modeled these buttons on Stella’s device: “Stella, Jake Christina walk” and Stella

replied: “Come, outside” and then nudged her leash.

5/3/19: I said, “Good girl Stella, good Stella” several times verbally. Stella walked over to her device and repeated “Good.”

4/29/19: Stella saw Jake sitting in his car on the phone and told me “Jake, outside” while looking out the window.

Lesson 7: Stella calls us out!

2/15/19: Stella: “Outside.” Jake to Christina: “Can you take her?” Christina to Jake: “Yeah one second” [a minute went by] Stella: “Christina…”

2/21/19: Stella said “Come, outside” early in the morning before we had gotten up. We didn’t move but Jake started talking so Stella said “Jake!”

1/27/19: During a busier week, we hadn’t gone to the beach in a few days. Stella said “Beach” seven times in a row while staring at us. We can always count on Stella to make sure we take advantage of living by the ocean!

Stella has a mind of her own, and I feel so lucky to get a glimpse into a few of her thoughts. I can’t wait to teach Stella more words so she can continue to express herself and we can continue learning. What do you think your pet would say to you??

There’s certain people that you cannot speak on specific topics with because they don’t have the range, the knowledge, the empathy or the depth, to even understand where the fuck you’re coming from.

Describing someone as “not having the range” is gonna be my new insult for 2019

y’all, i know most mommy bloggers are usually absolutely vile, and the “wine o’clock” culture is so annoying, but really think about it: why don’t we talk about how alarming it is that mothers feel the need to constantly talk about wine, drink wine, buy trinkets that have quirky sayings about wine, and yet no one is concerned that maybe patriarchal marriage structures are contributing to alcoholism in women? why is it that, if a mommy blogger says she takes shots of tequila to get through her day it would be alarming, but having a wine tumbler that says “mommy juice” or “i wine because my kids whine” (a real thing i have seen online for purchase) isn’t… scary?

i just think we need to have conversations about how the structure of modern motherhood and marriage is maybe super harmful for women? and maybe one solution is to normalize men taking more responsibility in the home and as parents. this goes along with useless husband “jokes” where women chuckle over a bottle or two of wine (!!!) about how their husbands are so clueless and helpless. normalize husbands doing the cooking and dishes. normalize husbands taking part time work in order to care for the kids. it’s not about shifting power from husband to wife, it’s about deconstructing the need for power in the first place.

There’s a woman who comes into my gym regularly who’s like this. There’s a liquor store close by and she always comes in with a bottle of wine from there, works out and then goes home and drinks it. She jokes about it but like…I see her about 4 days a week so like she’s downing an entire bottle of wine in the evening at least 4 times a week. Is that not alcoholism?
