This morning Sage woke up and came to snuggle with me. She started kissing my cheek multiple times and then grabbed my face and said "I want a kiss on the lips!" and she proceeded to kiss me more. The girls had their last swimming lesson today and Audrey has picked up on it soooo well. She's so naturally athletic and I can tell she will excel at any sport she chooses to do. Yesterday at a friend's pool, she saw an older girl do a somersault in the water and after a few tries and a little help from nana, she figured it out and she started doing front flips and back flips under the water. Lucy and Sage were trying, but they were a bit more fearful about it all...not Audrey, not one bit.
Lucy loves stories! If ever I begin to say "when i was a little girl..." she perks up and looks as though she could be on the edge of her seat. "uh huh mommy...what mommy, what were you going to say????" She often asks us to tell her stories about when we were little and she's always extremely intrigued with whatever we say and her memory is astounding. Many times I've begun to tell a story and she will stop me and say "you already told us about that mom!" then she proceed to finish my story! I had totally forgotten I'd already told her! I cannot wait to get her started on the piano or violin or whatever she chooses. I have a feeling she will be really artsy...at least I hope!
I love the girls drawings! They recently colored pictures and taped them up all over our bedroom walls and their own bedroom walls. Who needs to buy art?! Someday I hope to get it all framed...someday when I get passionate about this house cleaning/decorating/organizing thing. I'm not so awesome at it.
German came home from a 3-day 2-night high adventure young men outing in Arkansas tonight and the girls missed him so much. When he got home they said "Don't ever leave like that again daddy!" On Saturday we leave on a 2100 mile roadtrip to Panama City beach and then to Georgia where German is going to bless Natalia's new baby boy Pablo. Should be fun and crazy and memorable and exhausting!
Today was a good day!
