Catching Up

We've had a bit of a crazy week, so I'm playing catch up in just about every area of my life.  For posterity's sake, I'm throwing a bunch of phone pictures on here, so I can remember simple moments that mean something to me.

I love these two, beautiful women.  Bernadette (on the right) has become one of my favorite people.  She's amazing!  She is such a strong woman of faith and I was so sad when she and her family moved to Houston a couple of weeks ago.  This was at her farewell party.  Mercedes, who happens to be 99 years young, showed up matching Bernadette.  It was picture perfect!  Mercedes composes music by ear and still performs at church.  She also happens to have a very winning personality.

Little Guy saw snow for the first time this season and wanted to know what it felt like.  He was happy about about 2 minutes and then when he realized it was rather cold on his fingers he became decidedly less enamored with the white stuff.

 He makes me laugh with his precocious personality.  He likes to dress himself.  It doesn't matter if it's sunny and dry outside, his rain boots and random costumes come in handy.

Little Guy does not like to play by himself.  He's usually somehow connected to me the entire time his siblings are gone at school.  If I need to be at the computer then he's in my lap.  If I'm talking to someone he's hanging on my leg.  If I even think about trying to look at my phone he places himself between the book and the phone.  He likes to "read" beside me when I'm reading.  When I need to work on a sewing project he creates his own reading corner next to me.

The last picture is from when my parents were visiting.  My dad wanted to go to the doughnut shop that everyone raves about in Guthrie.  We came back from Missy's Donuts and Dad made his feelings very clear about his purchases:
