What Is She Thinking?

Last week, while playing outside, Jade would randomly drop to the ground, rest her head on her arms, cross her legs and start to sing random Disney songs.  I was able to quickly grab this photo and, since I’m addicted to Lightroom, edited it a bit in there.

I wish I could peer my daughter’s mind and listen to what goes through her head (well….only until she starts to like boys — then I don’t want to know!!).  What about you?  What do you think she is thinking in this picture? If you’ve never left a comment before, now is a perfect time to weigh in!

    I believe she is marveling at how beautiful Sleeping Beauty is and how much she loves her daddy, mommy and baby brother and how funny the grass feels on her bare legs! =]

    @Brooke » She is her mother’s daughter when it comes to walking barefoot outside!

    @Ally » Thanks for “nipping” by! (I’ll need a definition from you sometime!). Asher continues to remind us all how great of a God we do serve.

    @Nancy » How long until society reminds our beautiful little girl that “all ISN’T right in her world”????

    @Cool Dad » How many cool points do I get for having you comment on my blog?!

    @Heather » Lets just hope those thoughts continue and she doesn’t start hating on her little brother for taking all the attention some days!!!

    she’s probably thinking, “why is my dad standing over me with a camera… I hope he doesn’t drop that thing”

    “Why does my dad have hair up his nose?”

    I have actually had my daughter ask me that the one day.
    Oh my wife started messing around with Lightroom.. she emailed me and told me she is “in love”.

    @Nick » I figured you would come up with some creative comment

    @Adam » I’ll have you know I have NO hair in my nose!!! Lightroom makes me feel like a real professional. I’ve seen some of your wife’s photos - she looks like a professional!

    @Brandi » based on some of the photos and videos your husband has posted, I’D PAY to know what’s going on inside your kids heads!

    I’m thinking that she’s thinking she’s Princess Aurora (Sleeping Beauty) in a 21st century music video…especially with Dad chasing her around the backyard with a camera. ahem.

    “I know you, I walked with you once upon a dream…I know you, the gleam in your eyes is so familiar a gleam”

    ps. Yesterday at the park I was at the bottom of the slide and Mom was like “Jade, go get Angela from the slide!” and she was like “Jadyn tooooo the rescue!” hahaha.

    “Bunny rabbit…turtle…flying saucer…space ship…daisy…. All cumulus humilis cloud formations. Why is father blocking my view of this grand parade of images? He should be pointing the camera heavenward!”

    Maybe you should check into salt tablets. One time when I was mowing the yard in the middle of summer, I dropped to the ground and started singing random Disney songs.

    Salt deficiency.

    Or, perhaps she’s planning the ultimate Disney cruise vacation package, and pondering the best way to ask Daddy and Mommy for $6000 to cover the costs.
