A couple of days ago, Matt took the girls on a daddy/daughter date.  In the process of going, Matt learned that one of his friends, Jeramy, was taking his son on a daddy/son date, so they ended up going together to the Weber State basketball game.  As I was getting the girls ready to go, Lauren told me that she probably should wear lipstick since she was going on a date, so I put some lip gloss on the girls.  Then she told me that she should probably have a purse if she was going on a date, so we grabbed them some pretty purses.  She continued to inform me that the purse should have stuff in it, like a cell phone and some treats in case they get hungry.  We filled the bag up with goodies, then they were on their way.  Notice the shine bouncing off their lips!  

It's amazing the things that these little people pick up as they watch us.  I must admit it makes me a little uneasy to think that they will be going to elementary, then Jr. High (yuck), then high school, and so forth, and having to deal with all the cruddy stuff that goes on.  I love having them little, it's so much fun.  In another way though, I keep thinking how much fun it is to be able to have actual conversations with them, and to be able to go to the store without drama or melt downs.  I've decided I'm just going to enjoy the moment wherever we are at, and not dwell on anything else.  

By the way, does anyone else feel way to young to have kids?  I was watching Lauren today, and it hit me that I have a 4 1/2 year old and a 3 year old (almost).  That's crazy!!!  Well, it feels good to get my rambling thoughts on paper (so to speak) and out of my head.
