Visit to see the little one.

Last Sunday Liz and I made the trip up to see Sydney. It's so fascinating to see how big she is each time I see her. On the way home Liz made the comment that calling her "little one" on my Facebook status update may no longer be fitting. I remember the first time I held this little one in my hands. I was so young, so immature, so fragile with her. There was one thing I was not and that is ungrateful. She has been a huge blessing in my life and even though she's only seven, has taught me more than some adults have. To me she will always be "my little one."

Here are a few shots from the weekend. This one is probably my favorite. Hmmmm, wonder why......

We visited a park that we had never been to before in Cape Girardeau. The park was set up around a lake with a paved walk that surrounded it. And all around there were several activities for kids to do so we did them.

We walked on the rocks....

We played hop scotch.....Liz and Syd were just plain silly!

We had such a great time.

At the end of this trip we got a chance to check out one of this kiddos soccer games where she scored 2 goals! Over all it was a great trip. Being around my "little one" and my wonderful wife makes me so happy. This past Sunday was all smiles. I love you guys!
