I shared Ella’s back to school interview on the blog yesterday and now it’s Sophie’s turn! This girl is at such a funny age. She’s like a chameleon and her personality and mood changes with the scenery. Most days she’s grinning from ear to ear and happy about everything. Other days, she whines about — literally — every single thing that we say and do. Her diet has a huge impact on how she’s feeling and processing what is going on around her and it’s a battle that we fight every single day. It’s rough not having a specific diagnosis, because the effects of certain foods seem to change frequently and we have to make adjustments on a regular basis. She has a great sense of humor and is always playing practical jokes on us or telling funny stories. She is OBSESSED with YouTube Kids and is always watching a new DIY video or family vlog. I wish that I could video a day in the life with her, because it is so hard to describe her quirky personality and I want to share her with all of you!
