Lately when i read books to Graham he says "Amen" in a nice loud voice when I get to the end. He also says "Oh Man" all the time. Like when I scratch my leg, when I blow my nose, when he bumps his head and my favorite, when he smells his stinky feet.
My tiny little 10 mo. old Leah graduated to a size 2 diaper today, and they are a little big. She started giving kisses this week. I could eat her.
We went to Zions on the way home from St. George yesterday and maybe one day I'll put up some pictures but it was sooooooo beautiful and warm and sunny and perfect. Before we left me and Clara were in the bathroom and I decided I wanted to take off the t-shirt I had under my sweatshirt before we got back in the car. We were the only two in there, so I just did out by the sink real quick. I'm not sure how to describe it but Clara seemed so big to me right then. She was really worried someone was going to come in so she said something to me about helping me, but her tone and the way she took my other shirt from me and walked around my back and helped my pull my sweatshirt back down quickly just felt so motherly. Then as we ran out the door I tripped a little in a bump in the side walk and she just instinctually reached for my hand and asked if I was okay and I know she's just 6 years old, but.....but I don't know what. She just feels so old sometimes - like she is this little mother walking around in a child's body and this might seem silly to write about but that little experience was so sweet to me and I've thought about it so many times since yesterday.
And really that's all I have to write about right now. - the end. Amen.
