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.

 So proud of the artwork on her shirt!

Hard at work writing her name!  

What static?!?  

Who doesn't want to sleep like this?

Uncomfortable much?

Note to self.

Do not request a sister photo on the way out the door...

Rainbow Dash Ponies

 "When I grow up and be a mommy

, I want to have Rainbow Dash ponies, just like you have 3 sisters!"

I think she means "like I have three daughters."

These are the moments that steal my heart!

 

She believes in magic.

And, I love it!

2nd grade sleepover!

 

This school year has brought a new school and new friends.  Here is Miss E heading to her first slumber party of 2nd grade!  Here's to good times with new friends! 

 

 Excited is an understatement. 

 

 "Mommy, let's make silly faces before I go."

E?  I always have time to make silly faces with you.

Forever and ever, right?

 

The aftermath of the 2nd grade slumber party.

Holy crankiness and sleeping the afternoon away.

But, she loved every second of it!
