growing up

Isn't it the little things that remind us that our kids are growing up?

Today, Eli walked up to Sami and gave her a big hug around her middle. I smiled a big smile.

Autumn and Sami are doing a craft with glitter glue and little squares of paper--making a mosaic. I smile every time I look at them working away.

Sami came downstairs after rest time with 2 pig tails in her hair--courtesy of her big sister. Not all of the hair was in them, but they weren't bad! She really looked cute.

Eli carried Molly's food dish to her crate and shut the door on her. Eli was very insistent and everyone gathered around to support him.

At lunch Autumn asked "How does Satan live on earth?" Now, isn't that a fun question to explain to a 5 (almost 6) year old! and "What is Satan?" Sami was very certain that Satan is a snake and is always a snake. Lots to explain ahead...

Anyways, that's been our Saturday =)

Your kiddos are just too sweet! This summer has been full of those moments for me too. From Abby jumping into the deep end with no ring/life jacket to suddenly realizing Sami just said "lap" and not "yap". It is a little bittersweet, isn't it?
