Twinkle Twinkle

Larkin's new favorite pastime ...
StAr GaZiNg!
Every night this past week we have gone out back to watch the stars. We even saw the little dipper. Every time I point it out Larkin says, "Deeper Deeper Deeper."

I love you all day!

A few Larkinisms from the last few weeks

"I love you all day!"
Whenever we find a mystery puddle of anything at our house, "That is not okay!"
Adding ING to the end of words is a favorite right now. "It's darking outside.", "I'm stucking."
While driving in the car to church in the morning, "It's too late." "It's too late." "It's too late."
Whenever she yawns she has to say, "Oh. I so tired."

Funny Face

I love this time of year. We spend lots of time outside exploring and having adventures, and that means my camera is handy for snapping a few pics of Larkin (if I had a nickel for every picture I take of her, I would literally be a millionaire!)

Scot and Larkin at the Drive-In Movie ... check out that face!

I am in love with the faces Larkin makes right now. This one cracks me up! Like "Yep. I'm having fun. I'm cute. I'm two."


Check out this quiet moment of our trip to Fairy Tale Town ...

That face melts my heart!

Tonight Larkin says, "My dad work in a chicken. Yeah. A chicken."
I was cracking up.

A Little Science and Religion

A few weeks ago we were out walking in our neighborhood and we saw a rainbow. It was a beautiful day and the rainbow was trapped in the water vapor in a cloud in the bright blue sky.
It was beautiful. I pointed it out to Larkin and we talked about all the colors in the rainbow while we walked.
Pretty soon she asked, "I touch it momma?"
I laughed and told her that it was too high up in the sky for her to touch it.
She asked, "You touch the wainbow momma?"
I told her the rainbow was too high for anyone to touch. Only planes and birds and Jesus could touch rainbows because they are so high up in the sky.
She said, "Yeah. Jesus touch the wainbow."

Several weeks later ... Larkin tells the checker and the grocery store, "Jesus touch the wainbow." Larkin tells our friends, "Jesus touch the wainbow." Lakin tells her teacher, "Jesus touch the wainbow."

She tells anyone and everyone who will listen that Jesus can touch the rainbows.

I am a Child of God

Larkin LOVES to sing.
Her favorite lately has been "I am a Child of God"
We sing it every night before bed. We sing it in the car. We sing it constantly.

I recently heard Larkin waking up from her nap, laying in bed, singing ...
"lead I gonna walk inside a .....
teach a tall tall I a do
.....a love a me me me"

the real words: "lead me, guide me, walk beside me .....
teach me all that I must do to live with Him someday"
