It's been a long time since I have posted, and the main reason is because of so many personal things going on in my life, I didn't want my blog post to be run by my emotions. I wanted to write with a clear mind. After all this time, I don't know if my mind will ever be clear after what has happened over the last few months. But, I am not going to let that stop me from creating beautiful memories for my children. This blog, after all, is about them...dedicating their memories. So, time to start new. Time to start blogging again.
So, today's post isn't going to dwell on what has happened in the past. Today's post is meant to be a new beginning...a new life for me and my two beautiful little girls. So, if anyone is out there reading this - know that this blog will continue. Just as my life will. Just as my girls life will. Our lives will continue with love and happiness. I will make sure to provide that for them.
So...lets talk about Brooke for a second. She is getting to be a little lady. She is still my little girly girl who fights me about what she wants to wear. She still loves dresses and skirts, but hates to have her hair brushed. She is in love with Doc McStuffins from the Disney channel. She says she wants to be a doctor when she grows up. She is adjusting fairly well to all the changes in her life. She has a pretty bad case of separation anxiety, and I am trying my best to ease her fears. She lights up my life and makes me smile every single day. Her imagination is blooming, and I love to watch her play. She loves doing school work right now. So we play school at home. She can write her own name all by herself. There are so many hopes and dreams I have for this little girl...but most of all, I want her to be happy...every day of the rest of her life. I know that's unrealistic, but isn't that every parents dream for their children? I love watching her personality continue to develop, and I want to help mold and shape her...in ways that neither of us know we are doing.
Lets move on to Taylor...my little monkey. She is continuing to keep me on my toes. That child has three speeds: fast, faster, and sleeping. She is so much fun and smiles all the time. She loves her mommy and won't go to anyone else when mommy is around. She likes almost all food, and is a good eater, but not like Brooke was at that age. Taylor is almost running, she climbs up and down on all the furniture. I swear, she would climb on top of the roof if I would let her. She's still not talking much...well, really at all. But she loves to read picture books. She will point at a picture and I will say the word. She can do this for twenty minutes at a time. She makes doggy sounds, and says 'dat' when she wants to know what something is. She follows direction pretty well, and loves taking her socks off. One of my favorite things she does is when I am going to put her socks on, she lifts up one foot...and I can tell its difficult for her, but it's the cutest thing in the world to me. Taylor wants to do everything that Brooke does. They do play pretty well together, but Taylor is definitely the bully of the two girls. Taylor is going to be a feisty one - future boyfriends watch out!
Expect some much more regular posts from me. I want to make shorter posts about cute things they say and do. I am looking forward to sharing my new life with you.
In the meantime, say a little prayer for us. Pray that I can be the best mom I can for those two little girls. Pray that those two little girls will overcome the cards that life has dealt them in the last year, and evolve into two beautiful women.
