IN LOVE

Roses are red.
Like your cheeks after a romp in the brisk winter sunshine.
Violets are blue.Your eyes are too.You're colorful, to be sure.
("Lucy, turn around and show me your beautiful smile!")

And curious.
"Mom, what is air?" you asked tonight over dinner. (I defered to your father the scientist.) And confidant.
"LOOK AT ME!" you say constantly these days. And it's a good thing you remind me.
Because I don't want to forget. Anything.About my girl.

Oh she's darling... and so are you. I know how you feel about not wanting to forget anything! I feel like William is getting too big too fast!

Cute! Little girls that age are so adorable and quisitive! (I know... I've got one!)

So, Wes, where's the IN LOVE post for Lori?

It's funny how after a new baby comes to the family the first child looks so much older. You truly have yourselves a little lady. No toddler any more. She is such a cutie. "What is air?" so inquisitive. That's awesome!

I love that Lucy girl.

Heather said...

I love it. They don't stop being so inquisitive either (which there are pros and cons to that).

She is downright yummy. I love you Lucy. Thinking of you in China.
