And then? Life happened.

And just like that? Life happened.

Which is how I got so behind in posting picture updates.

They are coming. I promise.

Sooner than you may think.

Love,

A Little Bit of This, A Little Bit of That...

A question I often ask my kiddos is "Do you know how much I love you?" The other day, my 6 year old did something so incredibly "her," that I just grinned, leaned over, and hugged her. As I pulled back from the hug, I looked at her and said, "Do you know how much I love you?" Her response floored me.

"Mommy, you ask me that all the time!"

"I know, A, I know. I just want to make sure you know how very special you are."

"Well, when you don't know the right words to tell someone how much you love them? You should just take a picture. Right then. So that you will always have that memory to smile at. That's the moment that shows love."

Yep, pretty sure she nailed it.

And here's a pic of that moment...

Love you through and through..

yesterday, today, and tomorrow too!

Sister Moments

Found this yesterday morning, as I was making beds. Stopped me in my tracks and made my heart smile. Just a little bit. Or maybe a lot.

I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always.

Dear O,

Every night, since you were born, I have said the following to you:

Since you were three, you insist on saying it along with me. Your sisters each have their own special saying from a special book, but they prefer to have me say it out loud and then repeat it back to me. You always want us to say it at exactly the same moment.

I will say this to you every single night, forever and ever. Even if you don't always hear me, I hope you always know that the love I have for you runs so deeply through my heart that there are really no words to do it justice.
