You Just Know

I wouldn't really consider myself a "blogger," but more an "uploader-of-photos-so-that-our-family-in-other-cities-are-current-with-what-the-kids-are-doing." But I just can't stop thinking about a Significant Moment in Parenting that happened last weekend and I have to share it. During the free dance at Mer's Fairy Magic Dance Camp, while 15 little girls in leotards ran around like maniacs, waving their fushcia chiffon scarves, one girl stood on the sidelines with her head hanging and seemed to be sad and feeling left out. Merritt, one of the youngest of the dancers, stopped the insane running and "dancing" to go put her arm around the girl and talk to her. I witnessed this from across the room and my eyes just filled completely with tears and I thought my heart was going to burst from my chest. A parent can hope and pray and teach and worry that their child will be a good person and then one day, you just know.

Sister Wives at the Farm

Spent this week out at the Little's farm with Kelli, Monica, five kids and three dogs. We were too busy applying sunscreen, monitoring juice box consumption, policing Sam and Mer's "turns" with the Ariel doll and our own wine-drinking to take pictures, but Kelli did get this cute one of the boys.
