Lily Kate has done a few cute things lately that I wanted to make sure I blogged about so I could remember them ...
First of all - during her bathtime one night last week, I was washing her hair. Some of the suds from her shampoo got on her arm and she said, "Momma, momma, arm." It was like she was scared to death of what was on her arm ... so I told her to stick her arm in the water. So, she did and when she brought her arm up out of the water and there were no more suds she looked up at me with those big, brown eyes like she was in shock. It was so funny. She couldn't believe that the water had washed away all those suds.

A couple of my favorite bath time pictures from last summer ...
About 2 am this morning, Lily Kate woke up crying for some reason. So, I went and got her and put her in the bed with me & Stephen. I feel back asleep but a few minutes later she woke me up asking me where Pop, Lalee, and Sadie were ... So we talked about that and then I closed my eyes to try to go back to sleep. About that time, Lily Kate sat straight up in the bed and said "BOO" about 5 times in a row. It was like she was trying to scare me & Stephen. I couldn't help but laugh. She's so funny.
Last night, I was trying to get Lily Kate's supper together so I could leave to go to church for Cantata practice. As always, I was running around like crazy trying to get 100 things done. So, I put Lily Kate's food on her tray and started to walk away and she said, "Momma, pray." I hadn't prayed over her food like we normally do. Talk about conviction!!!! It was such a reminder to me that even though we don't think Lily Kate is "getting it" or paying attention when we pray before meals, she knows that we are supposed to. Normally when we pray she will bow her head real low but take a few sneak bites while we pray. I have to be consistent in my walk with the Lord in ALL areas, not just for me & my spiritual growth, but so my little girl will realize that it is real to me. It is not just something that I live while we are at church or when we are with people from church.
Thank you, Lord, for even using my little 22 month old to remind me how important it is to walk close to you daily!
