Another bites the dust.....

It would figure that the day I schedule a picture appointment, Olivia would go and pull a tooth....ugh!   Now we enter the extremely awkward phase of only having your two front teeth.  This being the kid who lists being a nurse in the top two career paths, yet cannot stand the taste or sight of blood even after doing this 7 other times!  It never gets old and is always exciting to anticipate the tooth fairy!

Daddy I need you....

Olivia: daddy can you come here for a minute
Daddy: what do you need Liv
Olivia: I need you daddy
Daddy: (hesitates for a second and I rub his arm repeating her "she needs you daddy") so he jumps up and says I'm on it
Olivia: don't worry, no-one is in trouble and you won't get hurt.  I just need to show you something!

This was a brief conversation from this evening as the girls rode bikes and we sat on the porch together watching them.  For some reason time stood still. As if God wanted that to be ever ingrained in memory.  Such a small request with such a big impact!

Dinosaur days

We spent the day checking out dinosaurs and hanging out together.  It was an amazing day!
