Lydia taking her first shower by herself, and enjoying it immensely. "I love you, Mommy." Dancing to music afterwards.

Melissa

Holland Farm with the family. The corn pit; striding through the corn maze with Lydia and Ruth; the picnic by the car; sending Lydia and Amber on the zipline, each by herself; rolling through the big pipe with the girls giggling and trying to stay upright; the picnic at Bucee's.

Melissa

Melissa: I mocked it at first, but I've come to accept it.

Brian: Hey, that kind of describes our marriage!

Melissa

Melissa: It's Friday night, what do you want to do?

Brian: Curl up with a sexy...book. But not Facebook. Facebook's a hussy.

Melissa

Folding the church laundry with Lydia. She helped because she wanted to.

Melissa

Singing "Do You Want to Be a Bullfrog?" as a family at the dinner table (to the tune of "Do You Want To Build a Snowman?")
