Happy Things....

* I got to babysit two VERY cute kids last night, Emma and Ethan. We went and picked up friend Addie and then stomped in puddles on the way to my apartment to play with Raja.
* Raja tolerates two very excited 2-3 year olds... and loved being pet by them and playing with them.
* Watching Addie and Emma play together in the rain, hugging each other good bye.... extremely tender and cute.
* Watching Seth comfort a crying little boy and making a little girl laugh so hard and loud.
* Calming a very tired/upset 1 yr old so he will go to sleep - I did enjoy it, really - it was a happy thing for me!
* Reading lots of stories to Emma before she went to sleep... She even caught me when I tried to skip pages!! and made me read each word :). When she asked me to tell her a story of my own, I told her about these two little girls who walked to Megan's apartment in the rain, to play with a very cute kitty cat. And was quickly corrected that they were BIG girls (and that she is a big girl). So adorable!

* Visiting with Mark and Jessica about our missions and those great memories. And telling them about all the fun and cute things their kids did while we got to babysit them.
* Eating Taco Bell, in the car, with Seth, on a weeknight at 11:00pm, parked at Kiwanis park, enjoying the pounding rain and great conversation with each other. And then Kissing! I love kissing outside when it's pouring, and I Love Seth!
* Coming home and having an extremely cute kitty greet you right when you come in and listening to her meow, meow, and meow - over and over and over to get attention and show she misses us.

* Waking up a few minutes before the alarm goes off. Petting Raja before getting up and then watching her walk all over Seth and climb on his back right up by his face and kissing him. She is so adorable, and loves to sleep on Seth when he is sleeping. And kiss his face or just rest her nose on his ear/lips. Very cute.

* An e-mail from my mother in law.
* Mom and dad, Alicia and Ellia arriving in Utah safely after driving through the night.
* a lazy, conference weekend ahead... and the hopeful safe arrival of my first Nephew! tonight? tomorrow morning? hopefully soon...
