Being 3!

I was washing dishes yesterday and I saw Lauren pass me on her bike in her princess dress and pink glitter tennis shoes...had to catch the moment. :)

Preschool!

I enrolled Lauren in preschool yesterday! She starts in August... She'll being going 2 half days a week. I can't wait to volunteer in her class, go on field trips, and hear all her stories that she will come home with!

Have I said how much I love being a parent??! :)

Happy Spring!

We spent our weekend going for walks, having fun with friends at the park, and enjoying the beautiful spring weather as we put our flowers in the yard and gave our front yard a much needed spring makeover.

God continues to bless us so amazingly. Our girl is growing before our eyes and although it is difficult to know our "baby years" are now over, I am taken aback at how tender-hearted and special our Lauren is. She loves to meet new friends, has a sense of humor that keeps us laughing everyday. Her heart is so in tune with other's that she is touched to the point of full on sobbing when moment's like during the movie "Bolt" when Bolt finds himself alone or when I read "The Crippled Lamb" by Max Lucado the other night, and Joshua, the lamb, had a hurt leg...she is so tender to other's needs. I have been inspired by her to pray more too. Often something will happen and she will say, mommy can you pray for my knee, or lets pray for that person, etc. Then, I think, gosh why didn't I think to pray about that! :) I can see God working through her and am so thankful to Him that he put such an incredible little girl in my life and has allowed me to be her mommy.

Well, I hope you all have had a great weekend! I'm off to get dinner on! (aka, order take-out) :)
