David flew in Tuesday mid-morning, and we met him at Little Azio's for lunch before his afternoon meeting. Lily walked right up to him and gave him a big hug before we went into the restaurant. We all had a delicious lunch, and David was able to witness just how much pasta Lily can put away. Both girls did great while we were eating, so it was an enjoyable and relaxing lunch. As we were leaving Lily gave Grandpops a big hug around the legs and said enthusiastically "Thank you for lunch" (with only a small reminder from me). We had some extra time after eating, so we stayed outside to let the girls play around the fountain. Mia impressed David with her walking skills while Lily entertained us all with her galloping and renditions of "The Ants Go Marching One By One...Hurrah! Hurrah!" I think Lily's favorite part of the day though was getting coins from David and tossing them into the fountain. See the picture below of the three of them having fun together.
A few minutes after this picture, Mia took a little spill and bumped her forehead on the concrete; she was not a happy camper. About 2 minutes after that, Lily took a big spill and scraped up her knee and forehead so she wasn't terribly happy either. After a good cry, she sobbed out "I need medicine!" She had stubbed her toe earlier while running around, so she commented that "I have three boo-boos but Mia only has one. I have three boo-boos because I am three years old." By this point, nap time was drawing very near so these falls made it clear it was time to go home so the girls could rest. It was so wonderful to visit with David though for a couple of hours. We all hope we can do it again soon!
