We dropped Zachary off and hit the road to go shopping! The first place we went was the shoe store....our favorite! Hannah and I both got a pair of shoes. She got these very elegant white heels for spring (can ya tell we're anxious for warmer weather?!?), and I got a very pretty pair of black heels. I don't normally wear heels seeing that I'm already 5'8", but these were too pretty to pass up!!
Here's Hannah holding up her new shoes:
She saw a pair of boots she wanted, but I was able to talk her out of them since the season is almost over. =) After that we went over to the department store, to Hallmark for a bit, and then....the jewelry store!!! You should have seen us drooling over all the pretty things....diamonds, rubies, emeralds and more. Hannah was most interested in the earrings since she now has her ears pierced. As much as I love jewelry, I had more fun watching her admiring everything with those big brown eyes! She was just so sweet!!
When we finally pulled ourselves out of the jewelry store (actually the prices scared us off...so it was easy to walk away), we drove to Starbucks where we sat and talked for almost an hour. She had her orange juice, I had my decaf coffee, and we talked about anything and everything! It was so cute...every time we'd finish one topic, she'd say "So, what do you want to talk about next?" as if if was up to her to try and keep the conversation going. I could tell she felt like such a grownup and I loved every minute of it. Thanks Hannah, I love you so much!!!
These times with my children are few and far between...with the hustle and bustle of our daily schedules, life often gets away from us and we don't get to sit and just enjoy one another. This is one evening I'm hanging on to for a very long time.
