{growing pains}

My girls are getting so big. 


We took Saydee to Kindergarten sign ups and testing and she did super well.  She has always been very smart, so I contemplated putting her in Kindergarten early, but when it got closer I realized I just wanted to let her be little.  I am glad that I made that decision.  She is very anxious to start and I envision myself bawling, driving behind the school bus all the way to her school on the first day.  I can't believe how much she has grown and have little understanding about how we've gotten to this point so quickly.


Chloe is hilarious right now.  She is so complient and aims to please.  She loves a crowd, but has terrible anxiety when people she doesn't know focus on her.  She constantly says, "botch dis, Momma!  botch dis!  botch dis!"   She loves trying to dance and tumble and do ANYTHING that Saydee does.  She is very patient and considerate and very concerned about the well-being of others.  She is always saying, "ah-kay, Mommy" and "you ah-kay, Mommy?"  She cries on our days to drop Saydee and Zoey off at school.  She wants to go with them.  It is time to sign her up for something of her own.


Saydee is such an artist and I never want to forget how early she started.  We were watching home videos this week and Saydee, at 20 months, was coloring in only eye balls, only strawberries, only shoes, etc.  She draws or colors every single day.  She lives for it and is very natural and talented.  She gets it from Grandma M. and her daddy. 


Chloe lives for hangin' out.  She just wants to be wherever her big Sis is or her Momma.  She is really light hearted and mellow.  She loves being outside, coloring (cawie), playing with Lucy, playing computer, eating/cooking, babies/strollers, etc.


I love, love, love my girls and they mean the world to me!  I can honestly say my health is driving me crazy and my girls keep me grounded.  They give something GOOD to hold on to and my husband does the same.  Life is about having something to make you smile... something to make you fight... life is about living for those you love.  I have the best family in the world!  Love you all!
