I Don't Make This Stuff Up!

Our conversation:
Reese: Mom, how do I grow big?
Me: Well, you eat lots of healthy food, drink lots of water, play outside in the sunshine and sleep really good at night.
Reese: Aw Mom, this is really taking too long. I want to be big now-- like you.



We won't tell her I said this-- but I hope she stays little for a really long time.

Time does indeed go by too quickly. I'm constantly telling Ella not to grow up too fast! Those pictures of Reese are adorable!

that girl kills me.

I adore that photo of you and Kean.

I just read your post on Haiti. FASCINATING. I was wondering about the details of that story. I'd like to hear MUCH more of it one day soon. That photo of the crazed-looking teenage boy gripping onto the SUV is intense and frightening. WOW. Thanks for sharing those photos. I have been having unusual bouts of insomnia lately thinking in my bed about MY young children roaming around after an disaster needing just the basics--water, food, hope. breaks my heart, I tell you.

I love Reese's sweater and her personality. She certainly keeps you hopping.

What a darling girly :) It's great to see Kean so healthy and getting such good care. Did you hear we're following in your footsteps with 3 girls and now a boy?

It's great to check up on your cute family.
