Dressing Up






Okay so here is a little story I would like to share and try to picture this if you can. I am in labor with Elena out walking the halls. I have a contraction and need to prop myself up against the wall and breathe on through....when something catches my eye. I stop and take a double take. Diederik and I really cannot believe what we are seeing. There in front of us is a man walking down the halls with his little girl. This little girl is probably 3 or 4 years old. Now what is so special or standing out about her you wonder. Well I will tell you this little girl was walking the hall with swimming fins. Tromping all the way down trying to walk as best as she can in these huge fins! The dad looks at us seeing our strange looks on our faces ( as if I had much room to talk I was in my hospital gown ) and he says" this is going to be you one day" and chuckled. Diederik and I have brought that moment up many of times. Now fast forward to 1 1/2 year later and we now have approached that time. Case and point- ha ha.
