It has been an introspective weekend for me around the second anniversary of my Lil' Bear passing. I was listening to the radio and a song I haven't heard in ages came on. For those that haven't heard it a guy has a fight with his new wife and goes to a bar to cool off. He asks the bar tender for "the good stuff". The bartender then chronicles the decades he had with his late wife and recounts those significant moments as the good stuff. It was very touching and made me remember a lot of similar moments with Diana, maybe you will get a smile out of it too:
Its the first long kiss on a second date,
Mommas all worried when you get home late,
And droppin' the ring in the spaghetti plate,
'Cause you're hands are shakin' so much
And its the way that she looks with the rice in her hair.
Eatin' burnt suppers the whole first year and askin' for seconds to
keep her from tearin' up,
Yeah man that's the good stuff.
Its the sight of her holdin' my baby girl
The way she adored that string of pearls,
I gave her the day that our youngest boy earl married his high
school love.
Its a new t-shirt sayin' I'm a grandpa,
Bein' right there as our time got small
And holdin' her hand when good lord called her up
Yeah man that's the good stuff.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
