Best part of the day

On a typical weekday around 5:30 p.m. you will find our house in a bit of a frantic state.  Usually by this time I am trying to wrap everything up for supper and Kyla and Ashlyn are usually breaking down a little bit. We are all anxiously awaiting the sweetest sound we know....the garage door opening and Daddy's car pulling in.  And, often during this time of waiting and craziness I find the best thing to do is just turn on some music.....it calms the house for a little bit.  Ashlyn loves hearing music and Kyla loves getting on a tutu and dancing to it. 

Without a doubt, this is my favorite time of the day.  As crazy as it can be, I love dinner on the stove, my two girls and Daddy walking in the door.  A couple of weeks ago Troy got a birthday card from his uncle, whose children are all mostly grown now.  In the card he told Troy to enjoy these years and that he remembers what it feels like to come home at the end of the day and be everybody's hero.  Here is what it looks like when our hero gets home:

  1. So sweet! Daddy coming home is our favorite part of the day too! Even though it's cold, many days I'll open the front door so they can watch out for him, and it's so fun to see how excited they get when daddy pulls in the driveway.
    I think it's so sweet and cute how Kyla (totally wrote Kylee on accident at first!) got on her hands and knees to crawl next to Ashlyn. You have some pretty amazing girls! =)
