Growing pains

So this last week Tenille, our babysitter, was out of town and so I was forced (and that wasn't very hard) to take an extra day off from work. I have other day's off, but this one was special because I got to have a full blown real nap with Dylainee. We slept for 2 hours and I would wake occasionally feeling guilty for not cleaning something. When we woke I realized that, that could have been the last nap I would take with my baby. I can't believe how big she is getting. It makes me think back to when she was born and we decided that our family was here. I was so sad that I wouldn't be able to see what another baby would look like or be like. It is still a sad thought, but on a positive note I love watching who and what these children are becoming. Korey said something to me last night like "Should I thank your Dad for that?" and I really hope that my children will be able to walk away from their childhood grateful for the things they have been a part of and have learned. Brinkley is smart and whitty. McKinnon is sensitive and so empathetic. Aniston is strong willed and social. Dylainee is flirty and funny. I love these kids even when I am surrounded with sass and arguing!.
