May Crowning At Mercy High

If you look closely at the photos dissolving above, you'll see a familiar little girl dressed in white. (Sorry the photos are so small - these aren't from our camera. It's still lost.)

Lauren was chosen by her cousin, Sarah, to assist in Mercy High School's May crowning. Another cousin of hers, Maya, was the other assistant. The two even got out of school in the middle of the day to practice for that night's event.

In other news at the YD household, Olivia was sick overnight and will not be going to school today. Julia also wasn't feeling well yesterday and ended up sleeping from about 5 p.m. all the way through to this morning. She got a big surprise overnight, though, when she woke up on the couch downstairs all alone (gasp!). She quickly made her way to the foot of mom and dad's bed, where she bothered them all night and kept them from getting a good night's sleep.
