Do It Anyway

Martina McBride's song "Anyway" talks about things that might not ever come to be, that might scare or intimidate you, that may never be appreciated, or that might not even be accepted, but you do them anyway because you know it's good for you and it's where your heart and hope lie. Therefore, knowing that how my family acts, how we look, what we choose to enjoy, or even what we say and believe may not be appreciated or accepted, I still want us to be who we are anyway...do it anyway.

Important learning step

Last week was a big week for Titus. He learned a lot of firsts. He learned to play peek-a-boo all by himself. Then, he learned to clap. But, most importantly, he learned to do "Touchdown Dallas". Basically any time we say "Touchdown Dallas" Titus holds his arms up straight over his head. We are of course referring to the Dallas Cowboys football team. This was one of the first things Aaron was taught by his dad, and one of the first things we taught Aaris to do. So, of course the tradition must live on. Not something most people would put as a priority, but of course we are the Denningtons, so we do it anyway.

And, well, this one was just too precious not to share. Titus really does love his daddy. And, despite his clinginess that sometimes causes a problem, we do love and adore the fact that Titus is a snuggle-bug. And, no matter how old he gets, I hope he always is.
