Olivia Livy Maya Canfield




No, she really does put her name at the top of nearly each and every school paper just like that. At school, she is just to be called Livy, if she's in the mood at home, I can call her Olivia. It's a rare treat.

OLMC, as I will refer to her as on this post, had her seven year well check today and the good Dr. Chunn summed it up best: Olivia, well, she's the sweet cream in the middle of the two crunchy, overpoweringly chocolate cookies. The two overpowering chocolate cookies? Yup. That would be Zoey and Drew.

Now, he wasn't saying that to be mean. I was there with all three of them and as he was trying to do Liv's exam the other two (not being naughty) were just being...and their little beings are a tad...umm... louder than Liv's little being. Simple Dr. Chunn words of wisdom - don't forget about the middle layer and don't let those chocolate cookie wafers squish her too hard.

They were profound words of wisdom, no doubt. But, as far as I see it - what good is an Oreo without that sweet, delicious center? And what would just the Oreo cream be without the crunchy, chocolately wafer goodness? They all fit perfectly.
