Talking Eyes

Tonight I decided to let Paige fall asleep watching a movie so I could get some stuff done upstairs.  Around 10 o'clock (2 hours after bedtime) I go down to check on her.  Her eyes were so heavy but she was still awake.  Here is our conversation.

M: Paige you need to sleep.
P: I want to, but my eyes said just a little longer.
M: Your eyes?
P: I'm tired but my eyes aren't ready yet.
M: I love you.

Happy Easter

Here is Paige with Bella (brown) and Princess Lulu (white.) Our neighbor breeds these kind of bunnies and I thought they would make the perfect addition to our Easter portraits.  I love Easter.  It has always been my favorite holiday. I love the spring flowers.  I love the pastel colors.  I love the newness of everything.   I love the Easter candy (it taste better than any other candy.)  And I love being able to focus on the Savior, the atonement, and the resurrection.   I love Easter.

Plenty of time for Cheesecake

A couple of weeks ago we went to the zoo with some friends.  When we were heading home it was dinner time so we stopped and got some food.  We noticed that there was a Cheesecake Factory across the street from where we were eating.  So we started talking about going over there for dessert.  Well, after we were done with dinner Paige was ready to go home.  She kept saying she wanted to go home and we had no time to stop again.  And just really whining/complaining up wanting to go home.  Then she heard the word "cheesecake" and her whole continence changed.  She turned with a smile on her face and said "Ohhh, there is PLENTY of time for cheesecake."  (with the emphasis perfectly placed on "plenty.")  It was classic.  And the cheesecake was delicious.
