Memories

Way,way behind on posting. We have had such a busy couple of months! Anyway,Caroline just celebrated the big first birthday. She is such an angel! It is like the minute they are one all kinds of things begin happening. She can take things in and out of a box/bag when you ask. She blows kisses on command. She has so much fun finding all of our noses. The most precious thing is watching her fold her hands when we are saying the blessing before meals. We haven't taught her to do that, she has taught her self! I had to tear up a bit at that! Words include dog, mama, dah (daddy), wha tat (what's that),up, uh-oh, na, na, na (no),and more. Walking is not a priority it seems. She is starting to get a little brave, hanging on with one hand. She moves around like a monkey swings from tree to tree-too cute! Climbing is also a favorite. She thinks she had done something big when she climbs into the rocking chair (and she has). Gosh, I can not believe she is one! I have almost stopped nursing completely-bitter sweet! It is harder to stop than I ever imagined!

Lance and Lilly Grace have been cracking me up this week! Lilly Grace is a regular old bag lady. That little girl collects bags of all kinds and finds anything and everything to put inside. She had three bags packed full of this and that today. I found kitchen stuff, tree ornaments, stuffed animals, blocks, lincoln logs, etc...
Lance had a crayon in the living room today. When I asked him to bring it back to the table he said, " I'm going to do this like daddy" and with that he put the pencil behind his ear. Little things that make them who they are, so precious!
Thank you Jesus for blessing us with these children!
