Happy Birthday Sweet Sadie

Sadie is 8. I guess I'm in a little bit of denial. I mean it seems like just yesterday that she was in love with Barney the big purple dinosaur. Then it was Strawberry Shortcake and My Little Ponies. Now Sadie is all about High School Musical and Hannah Montana. Signs of childhood slowly slip into fond memories and a young lady emerges. She still has a wonderful imagination and loves to play, but I know these days are few as she turns into a 'tween. I'm not complaining, I'm excited by the adventures and opportunities that await her. I truely enjoy spending time with her and couldn't be more proud of the little lady she has become. I'm just amazed at how quickly the whole growing up thing happens.

Brotherly Love

It's Valentine's Day and the Boys are showing their affection for eachother. I hope they get along this well their entire lives. They have similar interests- superheroes, cars, tools, but their bond is more than that. Their personalities mesh well together, and their creativity coincides. When they are in their own world of imagination, the rest of the world just fades away, and they can spend all day in pretend play.
