Ladies Date and Laundry

All Lilly's dreams came true last month when she finally got to move downstairs.

With a big new room in the basement, comes big new responsibilities.

The downstairs kids have to do their own laundry.

So Lilly and I had a lesson on "how to do your own laundry".

She picked it up quick.

I gotta say.

It's nice to do laundry for just two people again.

I haven't done that since 1994.

I can't believe there was a time I was doing laundry for seven.

It took me a while, but I finally took Lilly out for her Ladies Day date.

We went to see the new Hunger Games movie--Janie and dad tagged along too.

Afterward Lilly and I did some shopping.

And then it was dinner at the Roadhouse.

She cracked me up as we discussed school, friends, and Lilly's current crush.

I love my little lady and I'm so proud of the amazing, strong, independent young woman she is.
