Another Prayer by Lyla

While Praying she said, "I will be very very thankful to not have bad dreams, I know it doesn't work but please try your hardest"

Lyla's prayer 9/4/14

The other night as Lyla was saying her prayers one of the things she said in her prayer was

"I give all my faith into you and I give all my love unto you"

Not sure where that came from but I thought that was so sweet!

August 2013

Lyla wanted to sleep with her butterfly mask :)

 celebrating our 8th anniversary. We went to an italian restaurant and after ate some yummy cupcakes. Troy gave me the biggest surprise by giving me a beautiful ring with my birthstone. It was for our anniversary/ push present. I was truly shocked. A long time ago I was trying on rings at a ring store just for fun and I loved this one that I tried on. The jeweler wrote it down for me and I showed Troy just for fun. Well fast forward months later and he went and got that ring for me. He is so sweet and I never expected him to do that!

 The month of August we stayed with my sister Kristen for a few weeks while Troy did his audition rotation at Riverside county hospital. (little did we know this is where he matched)

 Having fun at Ryan and Taryns house

Lyla is such a sweet and loving girl, when she wants to be. She is such an independant, spunky, sassy, full of energy, challenging, super creative, hard but worth it little girl. We love our Lyla
