My sweet girls are just growing and changing so much.
To begin...A is just a beautiful,strong,sweet, smart,fun,hilarious little girl. She is no longer our little baby. She is just about fully potty trained. I say that in that way because she is still getting the hang of the difference in a "poot" and a "potty need". It is funny. She is doing good with everything else though. She knows all the letters and their sounds. She can recognize alot of her lower case letters too. She is working on her colors and shapes. She is not as interested in those for whatever reason. She is starting to draw and sketch out things, becoming interested in coloring books. She loves being read to and trying to "read" herself to us at night. I miss her so bad when I am work these days so much I cannot stand it. I feel like I am missing her growing up-which I guess I am. She is talking, most of it we can understand. She sill gets in "play" mode and she just jabbers at top speed. Her favorite princesses are Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella, and if you count her as a princess, Ariel. She loves Superman, she will watch the whole movie. She actually wants to fly and tries to jump off everything, testing it. If she doesn't have stitches by 4 we will be surprised. She is such a dare devil. She is very "hard of hearing" though. She is not very obedient and has be made to obey many times a day. We are hoping that it will soon sink in. I hope she will change soon. We just have to persistant and consistant. And PRAYER, lots of PRAYER! The other girls listened so well that this personality change is a challenge.
Now, as for R she is a beautiful,self-starting,smart,inquisitive,artistic and godly child. She is sensitive of others feelings and is very loving about her little sister. Don't get me wrong they have their issues now and then but they fiercely love each other. She plays with A for hours on end pretend games with dolls and little princesses. Her favorite princess is Sleeping Beauty and maybe Ariel. She is crazy about books and is reading on a beginner level really well. She is doing good despite me working and therefore halting our schooling at home. She continues to press on. She draws so pictures a day I cannot even count them all. She fills up notebook after notebook with drawings of everything from her nightmares to scenes from her day. She is very funny. I believe too that she is getting a sense of God and his presence in our life and how our obedience to relates to who we are and our relationship with him. She is beginning to be so helpful around the house wanting to wash dishes for me, of which she does a great job. And is tremendously proud of herself for her accomplishment. She is a snuggle bug for the first time in her life. She is very easy to make friends at her preschool on Fridays, and is loyal to her little girlfriends. She also plays well with a little boy with a hearing problem, whom she includes in all the games on the playground. I would have liked to have her for a friend for her fierce imagination if not for anything else, never a dull moment. She is a little bit whiny with us at home though at times, wearing her heart on her sleeve at times a little bit too much. We have to work on being a little tougher about things and handling disapointment a little better.
T is doing fine, typical teen behavior although exagerated because of her mothers behavior.
She will be fine we hope and PRAY!
As for our fate for moving we know nothing and continue to work and hope that all will return to normal soon. For now we are hanging in there.
