163/365

I love this picture because it is Lucy loving on her blankee, aka her baby - Pinky. I asked her to come here to get her picture since we hadn't done it for the day and she politely invited Pinky into the picture. So cute. She loves Pinky and Pink-O so much.

Today I am thankful for Andy and June and all of the massive amounts of work that they helped me do today. We cleared every single thing out of our garage, scrubbed it down, washed it out, and returned everything to its appropriate spot. It was a ton of work and very exhausting. Without their help, it would have been almost impossible to get it all done. Tomorrow we are getting the yard all back in order. I don't know how Justin and I got so lucky, but we have the best parents ever. Both sets would do anything in the world to help us out. Thank you so much for all of your help!

A sweet story for Daddy, who left last night. Lucy could not get settled last night. It was a weird day and night since we had no power. She kept asking to sleep in our bed, so I had brought her in with me. She had been flopping around and talking for quite some time. It was way past her bedtime. She finally was settling down and being quiet when she turns to me and says, "Momma, I miss Dada." Melted me. We both agreed how much we missed him. As always, Justin lucked out and got to be absent for all of the work that has to be done around here. Somehow he always manages this!!

Okay, we are in second place at the I Heart Faces contest. Please, please, please go and vote HERE!! You guys are doing awesome so far. Thanks so much to those of you who said you voted a bunch of times. I appreciate it. The photo in first place is getting a ton of votes. I think someone is sitting there and voting over and over again! :) You can vote as many times as you want. So, if we all vote 5 times we will blow by her! Come on!! I know we can do this.

Love your pictures. I have been following the blurb contest - as I am also a huge fan of blurb.

I do hope you win.

One of the nicest things about this voting in this particular case, I reflected this morning over my coffee, is what it says about community including but limited to the adoption community.

Yay us and

Cheers to you.

Unfortunately, it's turned into a popularity contest and not a best photo contest. Ugh. Should only be allowed to vote once.

Hope you win!
