Bobo Turns 7

My little monkey girl getting so big, so tall and so independent. She is such a ham, the clown of the family. She makes us all laugh with her antics and expressions. My she has many expressions and they can change by the second. I love the watch her play, how she can make a little cubby or fort out of pillows, bring in a few toys and play for a long time. She doesn't need her sisters to entertain her. Her toys can do that just fine. She is friendly and confident and hasn't a care in the world. It seems she isn't paying any attention to what's going on around her until she pipes up with a comment that makes it clear that she is. She has a quick wit that often surprises me. Bobo is a busy girl, moving and shaking and touching everything. She learns through touch and movement. Anything that is wet and gooey call for her attention. She is growing fast like her sisters and I pray I can pay attention and enjoy each moment.


Belle turns 11


Oh why oh why do my little girls have to grow up. Belle is such a character. Her sense of humor gets me all the time. She love nothing better than to push my buttons, tease and see if she can get me all riled up. And when she does I laugh. She got me again. She is such a mix of little girl needing a hug from her mom, to independent spirit, pulling away, doing things on her own. I love the way she plays. She gets a character in her mind and becomes it for a day or two, dressing in character, creating, leading her sisters. She is a drama queen. She is creative and gifted in so many areas. I feel so blessed to see her grow and see how the Lord has gifted her and to be a part of helping her develop those gifts. Belle and her best friend Jo celebrating with their first professional pedicure. Oh my what I have started?
