Ringing in the New Year 2010



Her finished "volcano" masterpiece.



Anna and her Volcano


"Mama, do you know how much I love you?" you ask. I reply with a nod of my head, followed by a shy "no". "1,000 infinitys" and just yesterday it was "more than the sun and the moon, even MARRRS!" It took all I had to withhold the joy and excitement from coming out as a laugh. :)

Monday we had a momma and daughter day. You made a list of things we would do and made it clear, it was just "you and I". We went to Honey Nails and got our feet massaged and painted, followed by our manicures. You chose silver for your nails and I asked you to pick out a color for me. It was a cool lavender which actually brought me quite a bit of compliments from others. Thanks Anna! :) We had lunch at Olive Garden, followed by the trip to the library for your favorite books and pokemon videos. We painted your volcano from the science kit we purchased while at Yellowstone National Park last year summer vacation. I suppose now is as good a time for it. You said this day was the best ever. I'm glad I'm making memories for you. Always remember, "I love you" :D and be good.
