Family Pictures

We had a "mini-session" of family photos recently. I am a rule follower, so I put the watermarked ones on the blog. Don't worry. We got some with no watermark!

Like Father, Like Son

Morning Comments and Conversations

This morning as we were driving in the car:
Abby: Mom, I really want to ride a squirrel.

You may wonder what the context of that comment was. It came shortly after she told me at afica and mafica rhyme.

Also this morning in the car:

Haley: Mom, do unicorns live at Disneyland?
Me: No, honey. But it does seem like there should be unicorns at Disneyland.
Haley: Then where do unicorns live?
Me: In enchanted forests.
Haley: Where's the enchanted forest?
Me: In your imagination. There aren't any real enchanted forests, but you can imagine them.
Haley: But where are the unicorns.
Me: Honey, there aren't real unicorns.

At this comment, Haley's eyes welled up with tears. It was so sad. I wished I could make unicorns real for her.

Me: I don't know why God didn't make unicorns, but He didn't.

After a few moments of silence...
Haley: I'm gonna pray that God will make unicorns.

(Katie, obviously I was thinking of you through that conversation.)

Babies:)

Haley and Abby's biological grandparents gave us a whole bunch of baby pictures of the girls. It's so fun to see them when they were so small (also a little heart wrenching, because I SO wish I could have held them and loved them then). Here are a few for y'all to enjoy:
