May Tidbit Post

This will be the tiniest post of the year. A tidbit post. Lydia got invited to a friends dance recital and was so excited. She really did not want to wear a shirt underneath of her dress and there was some high drama. It is important to Shantel and I that we teach out children at each stage of life that dressing modestly is important. She finally gave in by selecting a long sleeve polka dot shirt that did not match at all and we were just fine with that. Since then, we has worn a matching blue and a white shirt with the dress with no compliant. I think it is important to do the right things, but then if your child finds an acceptable middle ground (like choosing a shirt that does not match and is long sleeve on a hot day) then you go with that and it helps you and them. 

Anyway, Lydia loved watching the dances (although her friend went near the end and it was a little long for her). I loved being able to take her. 


Also, Austin: Not sure why he looks grumpy here (maybe he was tired?), he really wanted his breakfast on the couch so we compromised and he got a tray on the kitchen.
