Hot Dogs and Hot Cocoa


When I asked Sariah what she wanted for her birthday dinner, her response was, "hot dogs and hot cocoa." I was happy to oblige. Everything else about her birthday was princess, including the plates upon which we ate our hotdogs. So our little princess has been a part of our family for four years now and we are so grateful. We started a new tradition as we passed out the Cinderella birthday cake. As each person was served their dish, they were able to say something they truly loved about the birthday girl. So much to love about this little lady. My contribution was that I love that Sariah remembers to tell me "thank you" for the simple things.

This brand new four-year-old is not just a figurative "big helper," but a real big helper. She has been known to load and unload the dishwasher, fold clothes, sweep, and clean her room without being asked. Not to mention she can load pumpkins with the best of them.

Other updates. Bryant lost his other top, front tooth. He is now our Halloween jack-o-lantern.

Both our boys received the McGee Starship award for RESPECT today.

Just as the other children, Hyrum loves to ride in Dad's pick-up. However, he does not love learning to go to sleep on his own.
