Last time, I wrote about how the two kids are different. Cole can be very focused and will see beauty when and if he feels like it. On the other hand, Lena sees beauty in everything. Everything.
The punchline of that last post was Lena saying,
You look so beautiful, you handsome guy Cole.
Very sweet.
Three days later we went sledding. On the trip up to Yuba Gap we stopped at a rest area. Not a terrible place, but not exactly nice either.
Laura and Lena went into the bathroom and into a stall. Lena takes a moment to look around and cries out,
Mommy, it is so beautiful!
Everything is beautiful.
