bikes and Bibles

Yay for some internet!

This is Daddy's version of "can you play with Lily outside for a few minutes while I finish dinner?" entertainment...which was NOT a pre-approved activity!  Mom had to stop watching before she hyperventilated.  

 Lily is a constant and happy model for Josephine to dress up at will.  This is their version of "flower princess."

Lily has also become a bit obsessed with Daddy's "baby Bible", which she has insisted is hers and takes it with her most places.  It is filled with "ABC's" as she says, and she loves to look up different pages and sing them, as we do with the Haitian song book that everyone carries to church and prayer meetings.  

I caught her the other day in my chair, "reading" and singing to Shay.  Her favorite new little song was Gertha taught and all in Haitian Creole: 

Li la Bib ou, priye chak jou     Read your Bible and pray each day

priye chak jou   pray each day

priye chak jou   pray each day

Li la Bib ou, priye chak jou    Read your Bible and pray each day

E ou va grandi    and you will grow.

E ou va grandi, E ou va grandi

Li la Bib ou, priey chak jou

E ou va grandi

I am always overjoyed and just amazed to hear Lil singing this song to herself as she "works" about the house, and when she's "reading" her "baby Bible", she'll tell me: "li la bib ou, Mommy."

...which then led to her laying with Shay...

and then just rolling in the grass happily "like a doggie."

sure do love this bundle of joy
