The Lizard

We have a lizard that lives in our bushes outside our kitchen window and is often on the window sill. The girls love to watch the little critter. They will watch it for a long time. This morning we went to see if "Lizzie" was perched up on the sill and she was there, so I ran to get the girls chairs so they could enjoy Lizzie. They were adorable. Presley is the one who will watch for the longest. She gets so excited. It's amazing that Lizzie stays as long as she does because the girls are not quiet and they beat on the window and point to the poor lizard. This is one of the times that I just love the innocence of children. I never thought I would sit and watch a lizard (gecko) as long as we did. They are not very active so therefore kind of boring to watch. But two 17 month old girls were thoroughly entertained and loved every minute of it. I love experiencing things through their eyes. What a joy to have them in my life and to make me appreciate the little things.
We went to the doctor today and Brooke and Presley both have ear infections. They are just the beginning of an infection. I guess we are pretty lucky to be the age they are and to get their first ear infection. Brooke has a little cough and runny nose and Presley has been teething but they are not bad sick. Thank goodness! But I thought better to be safe than sorry.
Well I gotta get some things done.
