Random Kali-O!!

Today our Sermon asked, "Who's your daddy?" The premise was that as kids we all want to be like our Dad or Mom, we imitate them hoping we can be just like them. Pastor Kurt asked if we are still trying to do that as adults, trying everyday to imitate our Heavenly Father. It was a great message, and it reminded me of this picture. The other morning Shane was doing his morning devotions and Kali ran to find her bible (princess devotional book). She grabbed her coffee (aka Chocolate milk) and sat down next to her daddy for some quiet time. A beautiful moment. My husband, her daddy, teaching his daughter the importance of taking time with her heavenly father. Pretty Sweet!
Now on to some more random moments. I have been trying to back off the 3 hour naps. Well, that usually means that she passes out on the couch for about an hour. This was one of the more unusual positions I've found her in.
Kali with her new best buddy Tess. We went to Tess's house for Superbowl and she was awesome. They played and played the whole game!! Thanks Tess!!
Kali loves to dress herself. I know most moms with girls can relate to this stage. It is both great and annoying at the same time. I love to see the different combinations she comes up with and then trying to justify to me why they match....to cute. However there are days when i just want her to wear what I want her to wear and then we tango...it usually ends in a compromise. This time It was, "OK Kali, you can wear the sundress! But you have to wear the turtleneck and jeans...it's snowing and 20 degrees" That hat was her personal addition!! Oh gotta love my little Kali-O!!
