My Life...

The other morning I was listening to my favorite morning talk show, they were talking about a book and a website where people write in about their life in 6 words.

I've thought about this a lot! I've written down some and then scratched away since it didn't "fit" my life. To sum up a person's life in 6 words, can it be done? Here's my try, let me know what ya think.

My Life in 6 Words!
4 children, 1 husband, 1 lord
or
4 children, 1 lord, joyously busy

Two posts in 1 day...

Of all the things I am (mother, wife, daughter, Christian, student,...I fail to mention what my dear husband calls me sometimes lol)
I am great...OK I'm a Great Aunt!
You ask how can someone who looks so young be a Great Aunt?! Ha Ha

My niece, Chelsie had a baby boy last April 19.
Dylan Scott.

Well our baby boy is turning 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Woohoo! (tomorrow)
(I say our because my niece is like my sister and we are with Dylan almost every single day, I actually have Dylan withdrawals if we don't see him)
HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY DYLAN!

Dylan barely 1 day old




Had to put this one in. We call him muscle boy, Chelsie found this shirt and got it for him.

8 months old. Boy he got big!

Like mother, like son!

Crown says "Birthday Prince"

Geez I need to get on the ball again. I love looking at pictures, not only of my children but everyone else's families too. I haven't done a favorite foto friday, so I'm doing one today.
Enjoy!

Brittany 23 months old. Her eyes melt me, still do this day!


Andrew 19 months old. He hasn't lost the big cheeks! I wish I had a close up picture of his eyelashes, they go for miles.

I have more "favorites" of Dominick but this picture is very special since it's the very first smiling picture we received of Dominick. Look at his wild hair and big cheeks! We were told this was just after he arrived at EN "about" 14-18 months old (agency isn't sure...hmmm?!!) We had already been "in process" with Dominick's case for 6 months before EN sent us additional photos of him, even though we requested them immediately after signing of POA.

Marissa 5 months old in Guatemala. Paul's cousin was teaching in Quetzaltenago (spelling?), his parents were visiting and we asked if they could stop by the orphanage and get some pics.
They sent us TONS of pictures and the only one's that every had both Dominick and Marissa in them.
