Ella Mae

Ella - is 7-and-a-half (as she would say). Is ending first grade, and can't wait for summer vacation (me too). It has been trial and joy teaching her this year. It's so fun to see her learning (and retaining), and to be apart of her life on a daily basis. She is by far the most creative being I have ever been around. Just today I told someone that she is so creative that she ends up destroying almost everything, because she has big plans to turn it into something else. She is always drawing, painting, outside, bike riding, or asking to sew, plant a garden, or make a kite (all of which I have tons of time for). She usually says that she wants to be a Artist, but today I heard her tell Annalee that she wants to be a dentist. It will be very interesting to watch what she becomes.

"Annie"

Annalee - is about to turn the corner to 6 years old, almost done with Kindergarten, and can read full books. It's pretty amazing how quickly it all goes. She has blossomed this year, and it has been such a blessing to see. She has decided to be a teacher when she grows up. Often after school and on Saturdays she will set up a "class" for Georgia and "teach" her. She even writes letters and words for Georgia to copy and trace. It's pretty cute. She is a big help around the house and is great at playing with Adam.

"G.G."

Georgia Grace - is almost four and I can hardly believe it! She has the brightest spirit and often makes us all laugh. She loves playing princesses, and barbies, but is by far the biggest daredevil on her bike. I think there are actually times that the training wheels are about to fly off. She tells me everyday, and often how much she loves me, and everyone in the family, but to me she says, "Mommy, I love you morester." She has decided that she is going to be a Mermaid when she grows up. Ella said she would sew her a tail to put over her legs made out of waterproof material. Now we just have to get her breathing underwater and it will all be good.

"The Adamnator"

Adam - is officially a year and a half, but has decided to enter, what the world calls, the terrible two's a little earlier than we were expecting! We just call it sin. He is super cute and sweet, but makes it well known when things aren't going his way. He loves to climb (especially the play structure), blow bubbles, and just mainly be outside. He says so many words, LOVES the neighborhood cat Texas, and is the best smoothie maker I have.

Spring 2010

Yes, I realize that Spring is almost over. It has already "sprung". But I still need to catch up on time. If that is possible. The girls have done and said so many things already this year, and Adam is becoming a little man. As you can tell, it's no easy task to take a picture of all four of our darlings!
