We don't have trees ast our house. They are a pain to mow around and the clean up of the leaves i am just not interested in. So how does this little monkey know how to climb a tree? That is what I asked her when I found her climbing a tree at her grandmommy and granddaddy's house this weekend!
We have been celebrating Nana's 90th birthday. On Friday we took her a gift and spent some time visiting. Saturday we took her flowers and a balloon and drove her to her celebration. Her brothers came along with all her great grandchildren so she had an amazing day.
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!
We spent the day checking out dinosaurs and hanging out together. It was an amazing day!
Makes everything better! School has been a little tough. In exchange for a tear-free morning Hannah got lunch with mom and it's making everything happier. She said "I am so glad to have you for lunch mommy" :)
For the 1st time since kindergarten Olivia is not in class with her besrfriend Ruby. We are making more time for them to hang out after school. Tonight is pizza and a ball game!
