Four almost Five year olds have it all figured out

Megan is so cute she was walking from preschool going to our car and she said, "Mom, I know what I want to be." I said, "What do you want to be?" She said she wanted to be just like me a teacher when she grows up. My heart melted because of the way she said it. Then suddenly she said, "I've changed my mind. I am going to be a cowgirl."

What? I thought where does she get such ideas. Oh yes, I have her read a lot. So I said, "Fantastic, you should become whatever you would like to be when you grow up." Then the practical five year old voice comes out and she said, "I need to practice riding horses soon if I am going to be a cow girl." I told her she was right and maybe if we ever see some horses she could practice : )

I was thinking to myself, since I see a ton of cars in this parking lot she has a better chance of learning to drive first before she learns to ride a horse.

Wedding Dress

For years my girls have been asking. Please can I wear your wedding dress. So I decided that would make a good family night lesson about getting married in the temple and they all tried it on. The dress is starting to age, but it is a good object lesson for family night so I guess that is a good reason to keep it all these years.

Photo's

It dawned on me today that I have not taken pictures for almost 3 months. I started taking some this spring break. I feel like if I take the pictures then I have to do something with them. If I don't take them then I don't have to wory about them. Should I develop them, scrapbook them, post them, burn them to a CD, back them up all the time to a portable drive, or stop taking them : )

Perhaps less is more when it comes to photos. Now that I am doing some of my family history some people have only 5 to 10 photo's of there lives. It is a perfect amount to pass down to the next generation. What will my kids give their kids, hundreds of photo's of there lives? How will they even look at them? What if we did that for the next four generations? Then there would be thousands of photo's to save, backup and pass down. Hmmmmm . . . perhaps I should delete them now . . . Just kidding : )
