Dance, Dance Revolution in my Belly!!! And Layla's birthday!!!

Oh my goodness! I believe that if I lay belly down on one of those Dance Revolution mats and let Rylee go at it, she would make a high score! She is kicking fierce now! Mike's cousin, Kayla, got to feel her moving around last night. She's really the only other one besides Michael who has felt her at all. She's shy around her MeMaw...

Yesterday was Layla's 3rd birthday party! She had so much fun! I was worried that the adults would be bored, but I believe they had just as much fun (if not more) than the kids! My dad showed up to show support for my family. He's the only one. It's a humbling feeling, but it meant so much to me that he was there. I may not be Layla's mom, but one day she'll be my step daughter. He made my day when he called her his granddaughter, and I truly feel that he feels that way.

When you graft two families together, you always wonder how the pieces are going to fit. It's unlike a puzzle, where specific pieces go together and there is a specific order to things. No, family is more complicated than that. When you graft together two pieces of clay, there is work that you must do to ensure that the two seperate pieces stick together. You have to cut grooves, opposite lines or gashes in the two pieces of clay. Sometimes it takes more grooves to hold the pieces together... My dad was the first groove... Thank you so much daddy :D

My camera was out of commission so I will try to get pics from someone else and post them here ASAP!

Hope everyone is doing well!
