After typing up my current thoughts on motherhood this week and getting overwhelming encouragement from all you mamas out there that not only feel me, but are in the trenches, I immediately decided to really make a better effort at one-on-one time with my miniature person and we started with an ice-dream lunch date right after preschool on Friday.  She was surprised because Daddy was supposed to be picking her up and even more surprised when I told her we were not only going to Chic fil A, but we were going INSIDE.  Oh, the joy!  She loves sitting at the high-tops by the windows (because, ya know, she’s a big girl and all and does NOT need a high-chair in the standard sense.)  In these shots, she was simply expressing how hard it was to open the fruit container.  (At first I thought she was exaggerating, but then I had to use my teeth to pop the top off, so…)  I just love her silly nature and I hope she keeps that trait forever and ever.  I’m told she gets this face from me and that makes me both really embarrassed and incredibly proud.

Happy Saturday!  I hope yours is full of silly faces and football.  Winning football.  Unless your team colors include orange.  We don’t like orange teams.
