Lucy...

Is sweet in the morning

Is always curious

Has the cutest little smile

And the most contagious laugh

And don't forget those blue eyes

Teacher

Addie is always anxious to share the things she learns at school and lucky for her, Kimber is a great student. She patiently sits and listens as Addie instructs her.

She's a great little student and can hardly wait for her turn to start Kindergarten.

Sisters

I love having sisters. They are truly my best friends. I hope my girls know how lucky they are to have this special bond.

Yesterday I sent Addie and Kimber to their room to pick up before dinner but a few minutes later heard them in the living room together. I went to see what was going on and send them back to their room when I found them on the back of the couch looking out the window and talking. They were telling secrets.

They were having a deep discussion on dinosaurs and important things like that. The room could wait, the moment was too sweet to break.

The Patio Set

A few weeks ago Jared said it was his goal this summer to eat outside as much as possible. A few days later, for Mother's Day, I received a patio set.

We've only been able to use it twice but it's already been worth the money. Last Thursday night we enjoyed dinner outside and Friday we had lunch using it. Strawberries, sandwiches and cucumbers. Mmmm...good.

Then it was Popsicles. The table is just tall enough for Lucy to fit under.

The rest of the afternoon was spent driving Barbie Jeeps, playing on the swingset and soaking in the sunshine. Thankfully we took advantage of it because the warmth left as fast as it came.

Can't wait for summer!

Scripture Study

On Sunday Addie's Primary teacher challenged the class to read from the scriptures everyday this week and in turn get rewarded with cookies. Addie came home, immediately grabbed my quad and sat down at the table to start reading. She read three pages {or should I say scanned three pages}. She is dead set to meet the challenge and earn cookies. And do you see that bracelet on her arm? She gets to give a talk on Sunday and can hardly wait.
