Swensen Sentral

Sawyer has been big on mom and dad time lately. He's always asking Rick or me if he can spend time alone with us. We try when we can, but we remind him that we have other kids too and other responsibilities so we can't always spend alone time with him. Yesterday he was trying to get Rick's attention so he wrote this note.  "Ha dad You are osum."  Translation: Hey dad, you are awesome.  He melts my heart. 

So a while ago I found a letter Amelie had written to Soleil. In it she expressed some nice things about Soleil sandwiched around the sentence, "sometimes I wish you weren't alive." It made me laugh. Yesterday I found a cute tshirt for Amelie that said something like "because I have a sister I always have a best friend". I thought it was so cute and showed it to Amelie thinking she might like me to buy it. Her response also made me laugh. "Aw that is so cute, I just wish it were true."   Someday they will be best friends. Someday.
