Anna's new look


Our second daughter Anna is turning five this next week. Last night she went to visit her aunt Merlyn. Merlyn is a very generous person who truly enjoys picking out and purchasing clothes for our young children. She enjoys it so much that she usually needs two or three opportunities to distribute her gifts.

Anna came home last night with a bag of clothes that she couldn't wait to try on for her daddy. After her fashion show Anna decided that she should sleep with her boots on. Somehow we were able to convince her that she could wear her new clothes the next day.

This morning I came out of my office to find out that Anna (who never wants to get dressed, and who likes to sleep in) was not only up, but was also dressed.

I think the smile on Anna's face says it all.

They grow up so fast.
