What a day!

Just another Monday morning:


I took this picture before my morning walk with Lillianna. I took it to capture the beauty of our favorite tree. Since we just sold our house, we are going to miss this tree more than anything else! You can see Lillianna in the stroller expecting just another usual Monday.
This sad picture was taken after our walk. Each morning after our walk, Lillianna likes to sit on the driveway and play with stick, leaves, and the flowers in the flower bed. This morning, she was minding her own business, stirring some mulch with her blue spoon when Sid, our cat, came running at her full speed and didn't stop. Lillianna hit the concrete and piece of wood lining the floor bed head-first. It's hard to say whether it was an accident or an act or terroism on Sid's part but the fact that she had already sprayed the room this morning when Lillianna was playing in her food doesn't make Sid look too good. The jury is still out on the punishment. Lillianna is okay and suffered only minor, though many, scrapes and bruises on her face, head, and shoulder. poor baby.
Our day got much better when our friends Meredith and her daughter Lydia, pictured here, invited us over. It was so good to see them!

It got even better when Lydia shared ALL of her toys with Lillianna, handing them to her one by one, until she was covered in exciting new toys!

Just when we thought the day couldn't get better, Lydia had the best idea!

It's so nice to have friends to brighten your day!
