Love is a Verb

Holly cracks me up daily with things she says. One of my favorite things about her language is how she uses the word "love." It's always very active. A while back she was talking about our little friend Knox whom she loves! She said, "I love Knox!! My favorite part about loving him is jumping on the trampoline with him." Then, when I asked her what she missed most about Joseph, she said, "I miss loving him."

This morning, Holly was in my lap and June got very agitated that she wasn't the one in my lap. So we got her up there too and all 3 of us were snuggling when June reached over to pinch Holly's face. I said, "No, Ma'am" to June and she squealed at me, which made me laugh for some reason. Holly said, "It's okay, June I still love you." Then, because she's particularly sensitive to being laughed at, she said, "And don't worry, we're not laughing at you. We're loving you." Which made me howl even harder.


And I have to show off this little craft Holly did. She is really into art and comes up with crafts to do all on her own. On this one she punched out the little dots from all the ladybugs to create the border. I think it's a framer.

And, the best morning face ever:
