She's beginning to look like a little girl...so sweet! Love the pics with her big sis. Those moments between siblings that are further apart in age just warm my heart to overflowing.
I feel that almost frantically these days, my baby just turned 8. It is so bittersweet. I love my kids at every stage, but I really, really love baby/toddler stage. I do miss it so much. I love reading blogs from mommies with wee ones just to get those glimpses of fingers and toes once in awhile.
The pick of her on Bella's back is my favorite. It's funny how even though they're not genetically related (and are on opposite ends of the color spectrum) there is still some kind similarity there. I don't know if it is in their eyes or the expression on their faces... but there is something there that just screams FAMILY.
In answer to your question on my blog... When I was at cono, one of the most important things I learned about myself was that I needed a schedule. I didn't know that until I got there but it was one of the biggest things that got me started on the right path. I didn't know how much I NEEDED it until it was forced upon me and what a miracle it did. During the weekdays school and work make up my schedule but on the weekends I am suddenly left with all this free time and its like I just fall apart. I had been trying to figure out why I got this way on the weekends when it finally hit me that it must be because I don't have a set schedule. I don't know how to fix that one still because I like my free time but I guess I'm not mature enough yet to handle it. :)
P.S. I would have loved to come help you clean your house and give you hugs when you aren't feeling well. I hope everything goes well with your guest! Love, Annie :)
Wow, she's getting so BIG! They do grow fast. I'm very sad that I have no small toddlers in my home anymore and would desperately love another. Or two.
My hearts desire is to live out loud, a life that reflects Jesus. Join me through word and picture
on this journey called my life. I am the Mama to 8 children, one homemade and 7 adopted, married to my handsome Knight and daily following hard after Jesus. Hope you will consider me your friend.
