Olivia Fix

Tree climbing at the lake this weekend. 

 

There’s no place like it. 

I found this gem in Livie’s homework. She’s so right. 

  

Rollercoaster (of love…?)

Here is Olivia’s latest art project – a mini rollercoaster, complete with twists, turns and–notably–fire.

  

When I inquired as to the terrified rider, she told me, “That’s you, Mom!” Rather than link to the supporting evidence, I will just share the artist’s rendering…

  

The fix 

Olivia, to Owen, after he expressed serious concern over what must be a relatively new sensation: “You know what gets rid of hiccups? This!”

Give and take 

Olivia made this sweet sign at school. My favorite is “forts,” because some days you just need a hideout. 

  

Olivia Fix

I had some pleasant company on my Saturday walk: a sweet girl who reported that Gramma taught her to double-knot her shoes, and that she is indeed a very fast runner. “Almost as fast as Kyle,” for those of you keeping track. 

   

   

Smith family fix



When you dream 

While the Tooth Fairy didn’t show herself last night, she did leave behind a fair amount of fairy dust for sweet Olivia. 



It’s not a competition (per Mom) 

The lost-tooth race here has been tied for quite some time. Despite nearly a three-year age difference between sisters, Olivia started to lose teeth in preschool, forever narrowing the gap between her and Ava. 

Tonight Livie took the lead, losing an inscisor a bit early. She was mostly gracious, and left a note for the Tooth Fairy asking her to FINALLY show herself. 

No word from Camp Eldest, but I’m sure it will all shake out just fine. 



Obviously

Rebecca: “I’m really lucky to be your mom, Liv.”

Olivia: “Um, yeah. I know.”
