Since she wanted to put on her swimsuit (and wear it all night and the next day) we told her she would be taking swim lessons in a few weeks and since then she has been talking about it non stop!One fun pic from the museum last week ...
And a few of her and Ryan ...
Although you can't tell it in this picture, it was bedtime and Maggie was pretty tired. Her music was playing and the song "Beautiful Girl" by Andrew Peterson came on. Ryan used to sing this song to Maggie when she was a baby and we have since told her that. Now, whenever it comes on she calls Ryan into her room, lays down and waits for him to sing it to her. It is about the cutest thing because she sings it too and it just makes us smile.
If you have daughters, you have to have your husband listen to this song!! Here are the words ..."Beautiful Girl"
I've got your bottle,
and I've got you swaddled
and you're to loud to ignore.
Your mamma is sleeping,
the angels are keeping,
so cry no more.
Hey, beautiful girl,
Daddy loves you, he loves you,
most beautiful girl
in the whole wide world.
The stars are all shining,
the birds are reclining,
the squirrels are all nestled down,
and the trees in the forest
are joining the chorus
and swaying to the sound.
I know that moons rise
and time flies
and sweet little girls get older,
and then when you do things,
or your heart breaks,
will you still cry on my shoulder?
Hey, beautiful girl,
Daddy loves you, he loves you,
most beautiful girl
in the whole wide world.

What a precious memory and song! She will always think of Ryan when she hears it and vice versa. And I just want to know where Ryan's bikini is in that picture of the two of them? ha!
Love those words and love that beautiful little girl! Only thing missing in this post is Ryan's speedo! :)
