I'll want to remember.....




Simone loves the alphabet. I am sure it is because Talia is always carrying around a notebook and a pen and asking me how to spell different words. She wants to be big like Natalia.

Simone sings this.....

A B C D E F H I J lmo P Q R S T U V bubbleyou X Y a Z now you sing with ME!

bubbleyou! I love it so much.



Talia has a wiggly tooth. It's getting really wiggly. Lincoln and I were inspecting it when I felt the tears coming. Why does a wiggly tooth always make me cry? I headed to the kitchen to hide, and I ducked behind the spot where the fridge jots out like 2.5 inches. (Ya, no place to hide in my kitchen.) Lincoln told Natalia to go hug me. I picked her up....and do you know what she did.....she wrapped her little legs around my ribs and her arms around my neck. She has done this since she was a little baby. Every time I picked her up from the changing table that is what she would do. Then I cried more, and she kissed me on the cheek.









I found this heart during a photo session. I love that the leaves are little hearts too. I find hearts every where----no really they find me, because I don't look for them. Natalia has started noticing them too. I take it as a reminder...




Here is another one.

I want to eat that.

Wow, this was random post. I guess I am in a good mood. I got a ton of stuff marked off my to do list. It is still giant, and I am afraid I will have to ignore my kids for the majority of tomorrow so I can work. (Lincoln will be gone.) That kind of makes me want to cry too. I think that is because that is what I had to do all day today too. I'll be done with busy season soon, and then do you know what I am going to do......get ready for Christmas! I can't wait. =)

I love this post. It feels like conversations we used to have in your kitchen while the girls played upstairs.

Jeri you are an awesome mom, and an even better person. I love you so much for who you are, which is what you have always been. You haven't changed at all, just like you think Natalia hasn't. You are still the same. Love you! -M

So cute. My Janey does that wrap-around huggy thing too. Also, love the alphabet. I've tried to write down how Jane sings it, but it is too funny, and she ALWAYS forgets the WXYZ part and skips to the end. Oh, I love those little funnies.
