Blessed

Maelyn watering the mum on the front porch, and herself of course. A quick thank you to Holly for the JBF consignment sale - that's were we got this sweet fall outfit (and most of our girls clothes actually).


I just wanted to post these sweet pics today because I was feeling so blessed... that Mae & I had just gotten fed by God's word in Bible Study Fellowship this morning, that we were enjoying being together just the two of us, & that we were outside in this great "almost fall" weather.

I'm always suprised at how big she looks - in person she's my baby but she sure does look like a big girl in pictures! I love this precious girl... she's just joyful to be around (she's two, so of course she has her moments!) & I can't help but smile when I watch her. She tells us all the time that she's 6 years old & will be going to kindergarten tomorrow. Thank goodness that isn't true! In real life, she's LOVING her ladybug preschool class... I have to ask her come back out & give me a kiss because she runs in without looking back.

She's little miss manners most of the time - her favorite phrases are "please my can?" & "say 'welcome Mae Mae'" anytime she says thank you to you. Other things we hear a lot "I'm berry hungry" about a thousand times a day & "I berry want to..." - everything she says is preceded with VERY. She has such a sweet heart - yesterday she found a forgotten package of sweet tarts in her diaper bag & all she wanted to do was take them to Anna when we picked her up from school. She is constantly talking - today she asked me if she could pretend to feed a pigmy marmaset (from Diego) - I don't begin to know how to spell that - but I'm always surprised by her vocabulary. I write all this down not to brag on her, but to remember someday what a precious two year old she was. We are so BLESSED!
