My Happiness....

I am so grateful to be a mother and for the blessing of my girls in my life. They radiate such happiness, love, beauty, compassion, laughter, and joy. I have always wanted to be a mother and feel so blessed I can share my life with them. It is so fun to watch them play together and hear them laugh.

Mea is such a big helper and is so patient with June (especially when June pulls her hair). Mea always tries to make June laugh and loves to hold her on her lap. Mea is my tender heart and is so sweet, kind, smart, and sensitive. She is my helper around the house and asks me in the morning "whats our plan today?" (I think I say that a lot!) Mea loves to learn, especailly if it is about animals, and she remembers EVERYTHING! Honestly, if there is something I need to remember to buy at the store all I need to do is tell Mea and she will remind me.

June is a ball of energy and is growing up so fast. She does everthing fast and has been crawling around the house since she was 6 months old. She loves to follow Mea and always wants to play with the exact toy Mea is holding. June is quite strong and can pull the toy out of Mea's hand most of the time! June is so sweet and funny and has such a huge personality at such a young age! She is into waving lately and holds her arm straight up in the air making circles like she is about to throw a lasso. I have yet to capture it on film because she stops everytime I try. She babbles a lot and likes to make fluctuations in her voice which kindof sounds like a yodel. She says "mamma" only when she is sad and wants me to hold her.

I am also grateful for all of the wonderful women in my life - my mother, mother-in-law, sisters and sister-in-laws, grandmothers, aunts, cousins, and friends....for teaching me how to be a better mother through their example and love. HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!
