I wish I would have snapped a photo, but picture this scene: Mikayla has been home from college for two full days and we have all hung on her every minute. By Sunday night she's exhausted and laying on her makeshift bed on the floor of her room--eyes closed, with Lily sitting on one side and Sophie on the other, both writing schedule lists of all the things they are planning on doing with her on Monday, before we had to pack her up around 3:00! To her credit as an amazing big sister, they were all up by 6:30 and accomplished almost the entire list. She is going to be a fantastic mother.=)
It was High Council Sunday Lily spent the time drawing the speaker, whose parents are in our ward and were sitting directly behind us. She got frustrated with the face so asked Mikayla to draw that and then proceeded to embelish her drawing the rest of the time. The High Councilor's mother, who had apparently been watching her, leaned over and praised Lily and asked if she could have the drawing to give to her son. Lily was so self conscious that she nodded and then fled to primary with the picture still in her hand.=) When we got home I didn't try to take away the original, but asked if we could e-mail the mother a copy--thus the to/from inscription.
