Live In the Moment

And I wish I could remember what we ate, and what we talked about, and how they sounded, and how they looked when they slept that night. I wish I had not been in such a hurry to get on to the next thing: dinner, bath, book, bed. I wish I had treasured the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less” (Elder Ballard’s talk May, 2008 quote by Author Anna Quindlen speaking of her children)

- I put this on here to remind me to take time to enjoy the little things in life, or to enjoy the moments that make some of Life's Precious Memories.

First Tooth

Meredith has her first tooth. I'm so excited. No wonder she has been so grumpy. Her first tooth is on her bottom right (my left when looking at it). She is progressing so fast and doing so much. She is such a busy little girl and has such a personality. Emily and Meredith get along well until the other has a toy they want. They can both be very sweet to each other, but the sharing thing is hard. Meredith likes to talk on the phone. She started it the Saturday after we got here, so two Saturdays ago. At first she couldn't walk and talk at the same time because she would run into the walls and corners. But she picks up the phone, puts it facing away from here ear just below her ear and says "haw" for her "hello" and then jabbers away. It is so cute. I love it.
Emily likes to play the piano and sing. After every ten seconds she turns back to make sure we are still looking and we clap for her. She enjoys the attention.
