The Power of a Daddy

Today reinforced why Sunday, especially when Damon has off work, is my favorite day of the week.  Aside from Alexa's swimming lesson at 11am (a great success since BFF Gabriella's in her class now), we had nothing planned for the day - a perfect Sunday.  Our family actually ate all three meals together, a feat that rarely happens, and even went on a family walk tonight with Alstott.  All in all, a great day!

Damon seems to have some magical power over Alexa when it comes to getting her to take a nap.  Even if Alexa is admittedly tired, she never takes a nap for me...usually I just have to grin and bear it until bedtime and hope that she snaps out of it.  Damon, however, is a different story.  I have no idea how he does it, but around 2pm, I noticed the house became strangely quiet.  Sure enough, I went into the master bedroom, and Alexa was sound asleep on Damon's shoulder while he worked on his computer.   It was a very cute scene; this little girl does love her Daddy.

Sound asleep on Daddy's shoulder.

    So sweet.....Love to see this.... Daddy looks as content as she is and for some reason Daddys shoulders seem to be very relaxing!! Hope your family enjoys many more funfilled sundays. Always thinking of you....Auntie Gail
