May your monday not include a car accident two inches from your driveway (our fault) But if it does, may it also include funfetti cupcakes decorated by your daughters and niece 

Dear stairs, I love you!! Love to climb up you, love to climb down, love to freak my mom out doing it. See you soon!!! Dear dad, thanks for starting the "Don't Yell in Audrey's Face Even If It's Happy Yelling" campaign. I really appreciate it  Dear watermelon, Ok you're flat out delicious Dear mom, I know that you love when I crawl up to you on the floor, flop my head on your stomach, suck my thumb and stay still for three seconds. That's why I do it, silly! Dear hair, you're growing over my ears and you t i c k l e Dear sisters, you two are a bunch of wack nuts and I love watching you play Dear two bottom teeth, you are super sharp and I'm proud of the marks you can make on daddy's finger Dear bathtub, just seeing you gets me all giddy and makes me want to try to climb in you to play Dear swimming pool, with every visit I'm losing more and more interest. Sorry, mom Dear every small thing I can find, GET IN MY MOUTH

A Parade watching Swimming Eating & Napping  kind of holiday  [the story behind, and our memories, of Audrey's dress and Caris' skirt found here , here and here !]

Last week I drove the little people all over the western hemisphere (or 45 minutes one way)  taking Caris to Vacation Bible School. Since we'll be on vacation during Pops and Gigi's VBS, I picked a church that she had visited once before and one that would have gospel teaching. She was excited all week- she woke up on her own between 6-6:30am, ate a quick breakfast, was dressed and asking "Is it time to go??" every single morning.  I'm glad she has this brave, adventurous spirit (that she clearly didn't get from me) . While Caris was away, Liza got the chance to boss Audrey and me around- she picked the games and was first to choose which color/princess/etc she was.  She attended Gigi Camp one morning which included grocery shopping with a child size shopping cart, doing crafts and swimming. Not to be outdone, Audrey chose last week to debut two new tricks- pulling up on furniture and climbing stairs!

May you have the strength to make it down the stairs for breakfast but if you don't, may the morning sun shine on your face and the carpet be soft beneath you
