If you need me this weekend, I'm hoping to be taking in a good novel while drinking a Pomegranate Punch from Smoothie King--
all POOLSIDE, of course.
Yippee--it's Memorial Day weekend and summer is right around the corner. With the community pool now open and only 9 days of school left, the summer games have begun and the kids are loving it. Sean is so happy to be turning 15 this summer and finally be old enough
to go to the pool sans an adult.
Teenagers!
Where has the time gone since my oldest was tiny like Baby Kate!?
It seems like just moments ago,
Sean was small enough to fit inside a Moses Basket
and needed me for his every living moment. Time going by is the one thing we can always be certain of. Here are the pictures of Baby Kate I promised to share with all of you. I had such a great time taking these newborn shots for my dear friends Tiffany and Michael.
I hope you enjoy!
Teeny precious feet^ ...Sean's are a size 11 now!
Baby Kate is just a wee 4 days old here ^
By 13 days old^ Kate is starting to get chubbier. What a good baby girl she is. She let me turn her and prod at her blankets and fuss with her hands...I even stole her binky and she still posed like a seasoned supermodel.
I love the sweet fuzzy shoulders newborns have ^
And the involuntary smiles ^ they give when they're sleeping away time with the angels.
And the fact that mommy's hand ^ makes everything in the world feel safe
The stork didn't drop her off at the doorstep (life could never be so easy)
but her family is so happy to welcome Kate home!
From our Heavenly Father's hands and into those of her mommy
Who will comfort her
feed her
teach her
love her
Because that's what loving parents do!
Follow Kate's example and get a nap this weekend. You deserve it!
Enjoy the holiday and the memories of loved ones who've gone before us.
Rest
