Smelling Good Girl

I seriously could write a book on Finley Claire!  The other day we were sitting down for dinner and Finley comes down.  I had her go back up stairs to do something and she took way longer than she needed to for the task at hand.  A little while later she came down (if you are wondering why we didn't go get her......you try eating with 5 kids.....we liked one less mouth talking while we swallowed our food whole!)  As she comes down all smiles, Matt looks at me and says, "Do you smell her?"  I had her come to me and I asked her what she did - "I just put a little bit of Daddy's stuff on me!"  Cologne!!  Oh yes, the girl stunk mighty pretty!  She was so proud of herself getting all dolled up for dinner!

Another FiFi moment:  She made a project for me at church for Mother's Day.  She proceeds to announce in the car:  "Mom, I .....Dad, I made you a present for Mother's Day!"  After repeated attempts by Matt that the gift is for me, she refused and we just let her think that the gift was for Matt.  One day the child will admit that she likes me :)  I also got purple shorts from her for Mother's Day - need I remind you I hate the color purple!!!  But I do know that she will complement me when I wear them and of course that will melt my heart.
