A Fallen Cloud

A few days ago I took the girls for a 2 hour walk. I had Adessa on my back, Danika in the stroller and Meeko on the leash, it felt like a good idea at the time...! About half way through the walk Adessa moved to the stroller and Danika walked. While walking through the forest we came upon a cotton ball that was strewn across the path, Danika ran up to it and excitedly exclaimed, "Look mom it's a fallen cloud!!!! How cool is that?!" In which I replied, "Sooooo cool!"

Yesterday I had the opportunity to take Danika into town by myself while Steve watched Adessa. We ran in and got groceries and then I took Danika for an ice cream date at the cold stone creamery... mmmm!!! It was nice to have some quality alone time with my big girl. She had her mind made up that she wanted chocolate ice cream with caramel, then we sat down and visited. She shared some bites of her ice cream with me, because apparently I didn't make a good choice and next time she will order for me... what a girl, hey? We talked about school and how she is going to invite her teacher Mrs. B to her birthday party because she is so nice. And how Ethan, told her he loves her because she got him a remote control car for his birthday... she thought that was really nice of him. She pretty much talked the whole time, we giggled lots and talked about how we wanted to eat everything in the cold stone creamery freezer and how we would both probably be sick, but that would be okay! (She is sooo my kind of girl!) It was a wonderful afternoon with one very special, sweet little girl!!!
