Having Family Close By

This will be a shorter post just because today was a pretty relax day and nothing to exciting happened.  I did laundry literally all day (at this point I am still not done, I should be by 9pm).  Allison called to see if she could come up for the day  (they are remodeling their kitchen) and she just needed some time away from the mess.  Hannah and I decided to make some brownies for auntie Allison and Uncle Nate.  Something you must know, Hannah loves these two, I mean loves, she talks about them all the time, wants to call them frequently and prays for them EVERY night (including baby Timothy).  You could say they are the cats meow in her mind.  She was so excited to make these brownies and from the moment they popped out of the oven she kept saying, "Auntie Allison and Uncle Nate are going to love these, Oh I love brownies, I can't wait for them to have them, they are going to be so happy we made them."  Yup we are pretty luck to have family that we are so close to, live so close to us.  We try and see them once a week, they come here more often than we go down there, probably because we have two kids and it is harder to go anywhere, but we should try and make it more even one of these days.  Allison came up in the early afternoon and stayed till after dinner and sure enough before she was able to get out the door Hannah had to (loudly) make sure Allison did not forget those brownies.  I told you her love language was service and taking care of other :)

Felicity and Timothy are very curious of each other, they basically go for each others faces when they have the chances.  It has always amazed me at how even at 6 months old they know that there is someone of similar size and quite possible age near by.  Maybe it is the similar or familiar sounds that little ones make.  It is as if they are drawn to each other.  Felicity can be getting attention for multiple adults but as soon as Hannah enter the room all eyes go to her.  It is so special to see how those sisters interact with each other, I hope that even with time they continue to be silly together and care for each other as they do now.


Thank you little ones for your caring hearts,

Love Mom
