They Grow Up Too Fast!

Well Merek started her very first day of pre-school, or as she would like to call it "Big Girl School". She was so excited that she changed outfits 9 times before settling on one. I packed her lunch and backpack and the whole way to school we talked about all of the fun things she was going to do. Two blocks from the school she started to watch and screamed "my school my school!!!!!' the minute she saw it. We walked to her classroom and she gave me a kiss and hug and ran inside never looking back. It was so awesome! 
While I did not become emotional or upset I couldn't help but remember how little she used to be. I couldn't help but think about her tiny little hands and giant blue eyes as she looked up at me for the first time. And now she is walking into her classroom successfully without me. What a fantastic experience to have as a parent! To know that whatever it was we did, something must have been right because she is so strong and successful!


On another note, our sweet little boy is growing very quickly too. Thankfully we still have one child that needs us! We had our 30 week checkup today which isn't that special because we have checkup's every week but today we got to have a sonogram. It never gets old seeing his little face on the screen and today he was opening and closing his eyes during the scan. We are so blessed that he has continued to grow and develop wonderfully and after seeing him today I am that much more desperate to see him in real life.

I don't by any means think we are perfect parents, however I do take pride in knowing that my children are happy, healthy, and growing. God has given us such wonderful blessings in our children and I cannot imagine life without them!
