Thoughts from the week


Here I am! I like playing hide-n-seek


Lucy got her first taste of something besides milk and pickles last week. (Dandaw lets her gnaw on pickles while we are eating - great for teething Mama says.) Lucy seemed to like the cereal and wanted to eat the spoon too!



Loads and Loads of laughs with Lucy! Mama says we have great smiles!



Here I am making a fashion statement of independence - "I am 2 hear me roar!" I put my PJ's on and then added another shirt on over my pants. I'm getting good at dressing myself and mama knows why there are children who walk around with random articles of clothing on - rain boots with church clothes, tutus with jeans, etc. - it's not worth the fight sometimes - and hey - creativity is a sought after virtue.

Lately Mama has been talking about HOPE. I'm still trying to figure out what it is. The word 'Hope' is kind of like the word 'wind' it's something I can't see. Yesterday I asked mama "where is the wind? I want to see it!" She told me you can't see it but you can feel it. She said sometimes she wished she could see some of the things that are invisible - maybe things would make more sense in the here and now. She says we'll have to wait until heaven to REALLY see. I think I'll have to ask Mama about it when I get a little older.

Back to HOPE - well, I don't have it figured out but Mama sure seems to talk about it alot. It means alot to her. Here is what I've gathered. Hope comes from God through Jesus (because the "Bible tells me soooooooo"). Hope is what keeps mama going most days (is it like a snack?) Hope is Lucy's middle name (it must be cute!) and Mama says that without Hope there would probably be alot of homeless two year olds - because HOPE reminds her that I won't be two forever (she says she really does love me but there are some "two" moments that are no fun for her)

Sweet OO-cy





the many faces of our sweet Lucy. She's rolling, scooting, drooling, laughing, chewing and making our lives full of joy!

More cousins







Yesterday my mama's cousin's Angela (mama still calls her Angie) and Abbey came to visit with Angela's new baby Eden. She is a cutie and has a lot more hair than Lucy! It was good to see them - if even for just a little while. Here are some pictures of the two cutie pies and the three of us greatgrandchildren (we're only missing Shay!)
