saturday girl time

(find Ana)

Yesterday Ana was in a program called "Hope of America" that the Joseph Smith Birthplace Memorial puts on every year. It was cute to watch her, even though she mostly was just distracted with her flag and her friend sitting next to her. It was a patriotic program that honored veterans. I have to admit, I got a little teary-eyed when the band played the Air Force theme song and all the USAF veterans stood. I love my Dad and wish my parents could have been there.

Just Ana and I went down, and it was fun to have some girl time. On the way home, we stopped at a McDonalds for some dinner. As we were sitting there I asked her what her favorite part of the day was and she said, "This Mommy. What we are doing right now! It's girl time."

That melted my heart. She also told me that she loves me the same as her new friend Ella, which is quite the compliment. (I almost didn't make the cut, by the way.)
