We've had this picture in this frame since Addy was a baby.  For awhile it was kept on my dresser.  One day, when Addison got a mind of her own, she took it to her room and put it on her dresser.  Every once in awhile I'll miss it and bring it back to my dresser.  Then sometime later she'll take it back lol.  Tonight as I was putting her to bed I saw it on her nightstand again.  I LOVE HER!  We have a friendly "tug of war" going on with this one and I love it :)


Almost every time I sing or the girls sing "Families Can Be Together Forever" Addison gets nostalgic for the last place we lived, in Lehi.  For some reason that song brings her back to the townhome we lived in before moving to Herriman and she gets sad.  I sang that song when we lived there but I sang lots of other songs too.  I don't know why that one triggers the nostalgia.  When she hears the song she will say she wishes we could go back and she starts to cry.  She has said before too that she remembers me singing that song to Lexi when she was a baby :)

The girls love the movie Inside Out.  We watched it again tonight.  So when Addison started crying about wanting to go back to our "old house" I asked her if "Sadness" was touching that memory and she giggled.  I told "Sadness" to go away (she giggled) and I said "There's Joy".  And she closed her eyes smiling :)  Funny how I was able to apply that movie so well tonight, haha.
