ANOTHER post...

I know, I know...I don't post forever, some of you probably forgot I existed then BOOM 3 in one day! I guess you're just lucky! I just have to tell you all that I seriously have the cutest daughter of all time! I know you think that I'm just being silly, but I'm not! I swear! Some of the cute things she has done lately include...

1. It was midsummer when I finally bought her some flip flops (they were on clearance for $1.75 so I caved). Not that I'm anti-flip flop, just anti new shoes when she already has too many! She was wearing them in the car when one fell to the floor and she said "Oh NO!!! My FLOP!!!" As a Mom, I think that's adorable. She is still consistently naming one Flip and one Flop. And don't you dare call them "shoes" they are "flip flops!"

2. When we were in Tri-Cities we went to the Mall after a big breakfast at ihop. I asked her if she wanted to go to the Mall? She got really excited...she thought I said "Ball" as in Cinderella...she wanted to go the Ball and dance with her Daddy. Imagine how disappointed she was when it was just a building of stores. She did get a balloon though.

3. She really truly believes she is a Princess. Her friend Claire believes that she is Belle, Lucy is not that precise in her beliefs. But one day she was ordering me around and I said "Lucy, you are not a princess, you need to get up and get blah, blah yourself" It was as though I had whipped her! She teared up "I am a princess Mommy!" She really needs siblings to order around instead of Nick & I!!

4. This is the part that makes me believe I seriously have the best daughter...last night we went for a walk and to fly Nick's RC plane and on way home she got upset that it was time to go home and had a little fit. We calmly told her that she would need to go to timeout when she got home (doesn't happen too often), she walked in the door and walked right up to the wall and put her nose to it! I asked if I should set the timer "yes please" Uhm?? Nick & I just stared at each other in disbelief!

I just hope she stays this cute forever!

I love that sweet little Lucy girl! She is getting to be so funny! Claire is so glad that Lucy embraces the princess-ness along with her. I hope she is still okay with being assigned to be Cinderella. And I would die if Claire put herself in timeout that well. Lucy is such a good girl!

Kim she is so cute! I mean she is really cute! I know my own girl is cute but I can see and admit if some other little girl is just as cute! Lucy is a doll! I would love to watch her! Wish I was closer.

Ok, so those were REALLY cute stories....and Lucy is a girl after my own heart. I would LOVE to go to a ball!! I think you were the one that taught me to believe (at 24) that "every girl is a princess." Remember your apartment in Gresham??? Thanks so much for the phone call tonight -- it's always so great to talk to you! You are so full of wisdom! Love, love, love you!!

Kim, you do have the cutest girl in the world! Plus, I like that she has manners even when she's in trouble! :)
