Emma and I just had a great little Mommy and Me moment...it was quiet..Connor was sleeping..AJ was playing his game..and Emma and I were snuggling on the couch watching Little Einsteins...Emma noticed I had repainted my toes..and that her previous pedicure was coming off. She said to me "Mommy I know I have a little left but can I have sparkles on my toes too?" It was so sweet the way she asked...made me melt, and I of course went on a polish hunt and sat and did her toes...she sat so patiently and only wiggled her toes when I told her she could. Afterwards she said "Oh thank you" and I know...kids say thank you all the time...we train them to, but gosh there's just something about the way she says it...it's so genuine when it comes from her...especially when she's not prompted. When she remembers to say thank you on her own..you can tell she REALLY means it.
We're going to head over to Lori's today after our afternoon naps. I wish Allen was home...we had such a good time doing the double family date thing with the Parkers...I'm sad he's on duty..he's the "grillmaster" on the ship today though...I hope he enjoys his Independence Day...he deserves it!!
Happy July 4th Everyone!!! xoxo

Oh gosh! Now I'm going to have to try and paint Zoe's toes!!! That is SO precious - Emma really is a genuine sweetie pie. I feel the same way when Zoe says it unprompted. Love you and see you soon!
