Valentine's Day - 2008
This morning, the girls were really excited to show Daddy the Valentines they made him yesterday.
They ran into the play room to retrieve their rectangular tokens of love and then they raced to the master bathroom to lay them out in front of the glass door where Daddy was showering. Daddy was so impressed! And there were cookies too!
After Daddy left for work (with cards & cookies in tow) Mommy and the girls went outside to play. Cupid must have given a Valentine gift of Godiva Chocolate to Mother Nature because we were blessed with sunshine and blue skies unlike most of the days of February so far!
On this page (the page above), Gwen runs with her ribbon on a stick. It swirls and twirls and looks so pretty when she spins it! On the page below, the girls enjoy some sisterly love snuggles in the grass in the back yard. These moments are happening more spontaneously lately. Sometimes they even happen without the benefit of bribery!
Wow... Donna you are getting more and more talented with your digi-scrapping! Gwen looks like she is jumping out of the page in the top photo! Of course, you also have two very beautiful subjects for your art. I can't believe how long Gwen's hair is. Seems like yesterday I was reading your posts from China and seeing an adorable baby with very short hair. I keep cutting Rachel's hair into chin-length bobs and then I look at Gwen's hair and regret it...

I just got all choked up with the girls hugging. They are really finding joy in each other. Such a beautiful set of pictures. The one on top with Gwen coming out of the page is astounding and her hair looks out of legend. Beautiful.

oh my lots going on with your family.
I am sorry to hear about your Grams and you can tell from the pics she was spunky and amazing.
You made it down to SD recently? did you stop in LA? Sorry we missed you.
AND what is this about China? When are you going? With Norman for a homeland tour or what?? Sounds exciting and can't wait to read all about it!
