Raegann turned two a couple weeks ago.
Jaymeson turns four today.
Shaelynn turns seven in August.
Oh Summer...
How much it makes me reflect. I met Chad in the Summer.
We got married the Summer after.
We had Shaelynn the Summer after that.
The next two lambs joined the Summer trend as well.
I am in a new season of motherhood. The seasons seem to get longer and more challenging. Maybe because I took on my first year of homeschooling. Maybe because I have a new two year old in the house. Or maybe it's because I am realizing each child needs us in a different way, unique and specific to their individuality
-and those needs change as they grow.
They all make my heart skip a beat.
I want to be the best I can for each of them.
Shaelynn.
The most intense, artistic, passionate, strong willed.
Anything she feels, you feel it too.
She is a lover and a fighter. She always has something to say.
She is our first night owl.
She is a perfectionist.
She is a daddy's girl.
She has a love for Jesus and people.
She is a baby and animal whisperer. Or so we like to say.
Nothing makes her happier than seeing a smile
she put on someone else's face.
She is selfless.
Her heart is bigger than any I have ever known.
The most responsible little girl.
And, always our little hero.
Raegann.
The most curious and mischievous.
Gets into EVERYTHING. Will eat ANYTHING.
She has a big voice in a little body.
She still squeaks like a newborn when she cries.
She still squeaks like a newborn when she cries.
She is a night owl like her sister. Last to go to sleep, first to wake up.
She doesn't want to miss a thing.
She doesn't want to miss a thing.
However, she is the craziest crazy if she doesn't get enough sleep.
Absolutely needs her Ni Night (blanket)
and demands a good snuggle.
and demands a good snuggle.
She plays on your heart strings like no other.
We can't take our eyes off of her for a second.
We are in serious trouble with this one.
We are in serious trouble with this one.
Jaymeson.
Mama's boy. Takes after his daddy.
As I type this, his body is strung across mine.
The pickiest eater you will ever meet.
We call him the prince because he gets almost everything he wants.
He is a sneaky sneakster. In every aspect of the phrase.
He can't stay up late for the life of him.
He has always been the quiet one, with a sister like Shaelynn,
there isn't much room to talk.
there isn't much room to talk.
Although, he is finding his voice among the girls.
He roughs up his sisters as if they were brothers.
But, he also loves on them in such precious moments.
He's a boys boy. All things dinosaurs, legos and robots.

Every day is chaos.
Every day is filled with love.
Every day, I have that much more to be thankful for.
