Daddy's Little Me

Paul walked by me today and tickled my hair (I was sitting on the ground near Izzy) and he proceeded to the kitchen. Izzy got up and tickled my hair, just like Daddy. I quietly told Paul and he came back around the island to give me a kiss and walked back. Izzy came over and gave me the same kiss. He then walked back over to tap my hands. What does Izzy do, but the same thing. She gets it! She knows exactly what we are doing at all times, even when we think she is not watching.


Which takes me to another point. She is an astute observer. She may not share a lot of words when others are around, but she is watching like a hawk and picking things up. Now get her in the car and she is not quiet the entire 40 minute drive home.


Which leads me to again another point. We love living in Plumas Lake. We have an opportunity every single day to share with her something new especially on our rides home. Recently we have seen tractors and combines out in the fields, the walnut trucks bring in the harvest, crop dusting planes, horses, sheep, goats, pigs, ostrich, wild turkeys, a leaf storm while driving through downtown Sacramento, the geese are migrating back to our area, trains and RTs, helicopters, airplanes, the large trucks moving dirt to widen our highway, create overpasses, and improve our levees, and lastly the KCRA 3 (a local television station) water fountain in front of their building. Izzy is so much fun to be around because everything is new.
