What a nice thing to say!

We all know that fathers and daughters have a special relationship.

Melody and her father certainly do.


Yesterday, when Melody handed Alex something he said, "Thank you, my dear."

"I not a deer!" Melody exclaimed.

"Sure you are," said Alex, "You're my dear."

"Oh," replied Melody, "You're my billy goat!"

Who knew that could be such a sweet term of endearment?

Your daughter is so precious!

and, I love how you always have her hair done up so nicely! I am too lazy for that. I wish I weren't, but truth is that my girls hate to have their hair brushed and I don't want the fight on my hands. :-)
