Oh, Sydney.

Sydney and her quips – she makes us laugh daily. On this particular afternoon she was contemplating life while watering the plants, when she shared this with me. “Sneezes are just like Jesus, they’re God.”

She’s slowly wrapping her brain around how Jesus and God are one in the same, but yet Father and Son, plus we’ve been working on rhyming, and with fall have come allergies for Gilby and I, which means lots of sneezing – and somehow she put that all together in a single statement.

And her clothing particularities - they might get the best of me someday. She continues to dress herself, and continues to be picky about what she’ll wear. One morning we were both getting ready to head out the door when she comes to my bathroom in just her underwear, and flops on the floor. “I can’t find anything in my closet to wear, I only like to wear fancy dresses.” Oh girly, life can be so rough.
