I love...

It is amazing how time flies by and how fast our kids grow up. So I have been thinking of different things about the girls that I love....details that I might normally overlook that I want to notice and remember about them. I get so wrapped up in excitement of things that I seldom calm down and notice the details around me. So here are my very random thoughts.


  • I love it that M is learning to cook and we can trust her to do some things on the stove

  • I love it when H's eyes light up at the mention of gifts...to give them that is

  • I love it that A can walk in the room and miss the very obvious event going on, but notice the tiniest detail

  • I love it that S says "Thank you God for Stippy and Bety and Tasey and Tawta" (Skip, Becky, Casey, Carter) EVERY time she prays

  • I love it that M stands up for those who can't stand up for themselves time and time again

  • I love to watch H with small children. She truly has a gift given from the Lord and it is so fun to watch.

  • I love to watch A's eyes light up with excitement (which is usually when she sees a frog or other yucky creatures)

  • I love it that S thinks ALL of my dumb jokes are funny

  • I love to hear the girls sing in church....especially M and A, they belt it out with all of their hearts

  • I love to watch H create something...either with paper, or a photo with a camera...she is so creative

  • I love to watch A draw. Her artistic ability blows my mind

  • I love to see S take care of others...she is such a nurturer

  • I love to hear some or all of the girls just chatting with each other about nothing

  • I love it when they give me a back scratch or a foot rub

  • I love it that the first thing they do if they get up before us is to come and snuggle or give each of us a hug

  • I love that they are kind to people they don't know.....unless that person is unkind to their sister, then WATCH OUT!!!!!!

  • I love it that they love to come to church even when we had been there all day working on a project

  • I love it when we have dance parties in the kitchen and they think I am a good dancer!

  • I love it that they love it when I get a good coffee, or Autumn gets something she loves...it makes them just as happy or happier than it makes us!
  • I love it that they know how to throw a party and enjoy a good party

Sorry......no pictures with this post.

  1. Your girls are so precious! I found you on Bring the Rain and noticed that you had adopted. I love reading adoption stories since we are hoping to adopt very soon as well. Thanks for sharing your life with us. :)

  2. I love that H and A thinks they lived with me for a while!
    I love that M and my B #2 came to us on the same day!
    I love that S and my B #2 are twins:)

    I love that they SCREAM when they see me! I love how they think Big Tony is Little Tony, and Uncle Tony is Tony, and Tony is....wait...I'm confused!!
