Just so I don't forget...


Annie: "Mommy, I just need you to hug me and kiss me."

This was out of the blue, and, therefore, completely heart-melting.  Like a mass, gooey heart glob all over the kitchen floor.  In the administering of said hugs and kisses, I think I wore out my welcome.  She started squirming off of my lap.  Some kids just don't know a good thing when they get it . . . 

(Maternal instincts don't come naturally to this guy, hence my sweet surprise with this picture.  "Naturally" for Lincoln is more like G.I. Joe survival mode.)

Lincoln: "Dieter, Dieter, Pumpkin eater . . ."

This was during general conference weekend.  He was walking around the house unaware of his adorable altering of this beloved and slightly disfuntional-marriage-ish nursery rhyme.  It was so sweet.  I'm thinking I should write President Uchtdorf and tell him.  I bet he'd smile.  Maybe he'd even talk about it in October conference!?  There's got to be some connection between flying an airplane, the Gospel, and eating pumpkins, right?

This whole post was wonderfully sweet and funny. You should definitely write Pres. Uchtdorf.
