This Little Lady

How do I love thee,
let me count the ways....
1.Those sweet dimples on your cheek.
2. The way you say HI Jesse.
3. The way your face lights up with joy when you see Izzy.
4. Your sweet little voice.
5. The curl in the back of your hair.
6. The way you love your Mommy and Daddy.
7. You are SO considerate of other people.
Miss Madi, I could keep going and going. You have always been our peanut, small and quiet. But you have the biggest loudest heart of any child I know. If only you can stay this way forever, the world WILL be a better place.
Thank you for letting me be your Auntie!

Love

So I was laying in bed the other night, thinking I just started blogging again. And I hadn't posted in a while and I wanted to keep posting. I have lots of things to say, but never stop to say them. I decided that I was going to blog about Love. Not the mushy, I love you Big Daddy kind. I mean, I love you Big Daddy. But the other kind of love. The one that makes my heart melt. The one that would stop me cold and turn me into a puddle. The kind of love a mother feels for her kids, OR her nieces and nephews. So over the next couple of weeks I will post my love to each one of them.
                                                                      Up First.......
                                                                     This Guy!!!!!
                                                                         Nick
We are at church on Sunday and he is looking at me, and then he feels my hair. And he is staring at it. I say what's up buddy?
Well, your hair is kind of red. Its a little bit like mine. Red you know. I said; yeah, you should see it if I don't dye it. Then it really looks red. And he says, could you not dye it for a little bit so you can match me.
Yep.
 
This little man has had me from the moment I met him. He is FULL of life. What's next? Lets play. What can we build, where can we explore. So for all of that, I can never wait to hear what he comes up with next. Because it is him. Its not what he is "suppose" to say, its what he is thinking, and I tell you what. I want to hear what he is thinking!!!
But that's not the only reason, The reason he melts my heart is, I will see him at either church or Awana. And I always put my arm out for a half hug, but do I get a half hug? NOPE, I get a arms around the neck and a kiss on the cheek. MELTS. MY. HEART!
I know that full hug and kiss on the cheek are going to be gone soon. But I have everyone of them numbered in my heart.
Nick my man. Keep smiling that big smile. Keep loving with all your heart. Keep exploring until you need to find new land to explore. This world is yours for the taking. Keep being you. Cause I love that you!
