I've Missed THEM!

Look who showed up on my doorstep Friday afternoon!! Boy have I missed her! She went to preschool everyday this past week (since I was sick) and she's doing so great! Amy had a parent teacher conference and Abby's teacher couldn't say enough good things about her! She is blossoming into this incredible little person! And she's just so dang cute (I'm lovin' these haircuts Nikki)!
And I can't say enough about Emma! She is definitely 8 going on 15! When she got home on Friday she played with McKenna for an hour while I took a nap! She didn't have to, but told me she wanted to so I could get better! I just want to box her up and keep her just the way she is. I don't want her to get one minute older. She's growing up too fast! She was the only person in her entire class to make it to list 2 for spelling this week. That probably doesn't make any sense to you, but I'll just tell you that it's a big deal. AND she only missed one on her math test. BUT here's the best part; she got out her math test and wanted to work on the problem she got wrong. A few months ago I would have had to force her to do that, but she did it herself and figured out how to get the correct answer two different ways! Oh how I love that girl!!
And I had to include this picture! I know, I know, I with you! I can't stand all this cuteness either!

It's amazing to see how much the girls have grown up since moving to PA...and Christian is growing so fast. I agree..there's too much cuteness at your house.

I am not surprised at how mature Emma is. She has such a sweet spirit and generous heart. She's been fortunate to have such Christian role models to emulate...her mom...her Grandma Brinkley....her Aunt Judy. And of course...who could forget her Grandma Ruth - All of these woman are strong Christian woman unwavering in their faith no matter what the circumstance. What an amazing Christian family to be raised in!


I'll be praying for the sale of your house, a new place for you to live, and a smooth transition for everyone!

See ya in May
