"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will -- to your surprise -- miss them profoundly."

--Thomas S. Monson, 2009

Chloe Loves To Catch Ladybugs



For the past month, Chloe's favourite activity has been going in our backyard and finding ladybugs and putting them in the back of Olivia's tricycle. Usually she finds one, two, or at the most three, and is so proud of herself, and loves to "get food" for them, which is just grass and leaves. Today she was outside finding ladybugs and came in a couple of times to tell me she found, "hundreds and thousands of ladybugs!" I thought she had found maybe 4 or 5 instead of 2 or 3, and was so surprised to see how many she found. They were everywhere to be found today!
