Father / Daughter Dance Picture

ByKaren

I love this picture.

Holly absolutely loves her dad, which is probably because she is JUST LIKE HIM.  Seriously, they are like two peas in a pod.  I’m not sure two people could be more a like.

I think you get the picture.

So when I look at this picture, I don’t just see a little girl who is happy to be with her dad.  I see a little girl who is looking at her dad with so much love and admiration — I know when she looks at him, her hearts melts.  And his does too.

Whenever Steve travels, Holly cries when she has to say goodbye to him.  And she really misses him the entire time he’s gone.  Allison could care less.  LOL  When I travel Holly could really care less and Allison will probably be crying soon for my absence.

But that’s OK, I don’t mind because I love seeing the love between them.  It’s cute.  That being said, lets fast forward about 10 years when Holly is dating………. I somehow don’t think dad will be her favorite person when he complains about every guy she likes and wants to date – because I know he will NOT like them, no matter how good they are.

But for now I’ll just enjoy the little girl looking at her daddy with so much love, and enjoy her at 7.

Family Pictures

Friends of mine set up a photo session for our family.  It was gifted to me in September but with Steve having surgery in October, we never got around to doing it.  Now that he’s in his last days, we knew we had to make it happen.  The photographer was kind enough to come to our house and work with us in taking some pictures. I dressed us all in blue for colon cancer.  And I love the results.  We will treasure these photos forever!

Uncle Mark’s Visit

ByKaren

We were so sad when our friends Mark & Sue moved to Florida almost 4 years ago.  But we knew that was where they wanted to be and this time they weren’t coming back.  It was sad to say good bye to them, but we had too. Last October we were able to spend the day with them at The Magic Kingdom during our trip to Florda.  We had a great time and we couldn’t believe how big the kids got.  I have to dig out the picture we took of them and post it here another time. It was just as hard to say goodbye to them after that day because we weren’t sure when we’d see them again.   But Mark is in town…

Holly’s Pre-K Graduation

Holly graduated from Pre-K tonight. She was so excited and nervous at the same time because they had a few songs to sing. I knew she’d do great and guess what? She did! Here is Holly and her teacher Miss Justine: Here is the proud and excited graduate! Holly sitting next to her good friend McKenna.. Getting her diploma from Miss Chrissy… Proud Daddy.. Proud Mommy… Allison and her Pre-School teacher Miss Candace..

Saying Good Night to Daddy….

ByKaren

Since we became parents, Steve has always given the girls a good night hug in kiss once they were in bed.  It’s just something he always made sure he did.  It sounds trivial, but it was important to him to kiss them good night and remind them how much he loved them.  HE LOVED THEM SO MUCH! Tonight the girls said good night to daddy for the last time at home. Tomorrow Steve will be transferred to a Hospice Home where he can be cared for by people who can make him more comfortable than we can here. Mark and I tried our best but we are at a point where we need to hand it over to someone else. They will be giving him…

Seeing Santa 2012

ByKaren

I am not a big fan of the mall or the craziness that is happening there at the holidays.  Plus we don’t live close enough to one to make me want to drag the girls there to take a picture.  Call me lazy – but I just hate that place at the holidays!  So I’m happy that we now belong to the Westerly Yacht club and each year they have a children’s christmas party and Santa is there, of course! Holly’s getting kind of big to sit on Santa’s lap but she still wants to and I think it’s cute.  Allison doesn’t seem to be phased by him the last two years so I’ve been able to get her to sit on his lap. Not…

Halloween Bowling Party

ByKaren

I went for my bi-annual scrapbook weekend with Jodi today, even though Steve didn’t seem to pleased that I still went.  I just know that if I put it off any longer, it’ll never happen this fall and I really need the weekend away and with my bff Jodi.  He’ll be fine because my parents will be around to check on them and even cook dinner all weekend. The girls were invited to a bowling Halloween party so my mom took them.    I asked her to send me pictures because I felt bad I wouldn’t see them all dressed up.   Holly is wearing her Halloween costume for this year, but Allison is wearing something different, and I love what she has on! Don’t they look…
