What They'd Give Just for the Right to Hold You


Sweet Little Girls of Mine,

You are a treat.
I loved sharing a bed with you on our little road trip, even though there were 3 other beds in the cabin that were left empty.

I loved listening to you two chatter in the dark when you were supposed to be sleeping.

I love the giggles that exploded into the other room as you tried to "shush" each other so Mom wouldn't come in and put a stop to the fun.

I love that the giggles faded into quiet angelic slumber.

I love that when I crawled into bed, you sleepily slid one hand across the sheets, under the pillow, and into mine.

I love that you didn't wet the bed...because that would have been gross.

I love that you let me sleep and went in to Grandma and Grandpa's room when you were ready to be awake as soon as the sun came up.

I love being your mommy.

I love you both very much.

Quincy is so ready to pounce you in the third picture. There ain't no shame in a little sap once in a while. Cute.

Yeah. She kissed (slimed/bit) my cheek. Then laughed about it.

Cute girls! Some day they are going to love coming back and reading through all of the fun things you've done together as a family.

Don't you wish you had a blog (stories and photos in the SAME place) of your childhood to read now? I do. I also would love to be cruising through a blog that my mom wrote when I was a kid. Technology.

So sweet - I hope Evie has a sister she can whisper to when she's supposed to be going to sleep :) My poor mom, on the other hand, just had to listen to Tamara and I fighting. Ah, what horrible children we were.
