Grandma Great

This past week your Grandma Great passed away. This was the first time that you have experienced a death and I thought that it would be harder than it actually was to be able to explain to you. I know you are still young, but I felt it was important to help you understand what was going on. You didn't understand why grandma was sleeping, but readily accepted that she was in heaven and we would see her again someday. How grateful I am for the knowledge that we can be together forever as a family and that death on this earth does not mark the end. So glad I was able to make this a happy ending when relaying it to you tonight.

Clubhouse

One of the best parts of moving into our new house is watching you and your little neighbor friends having fun playing outside. You have been working hard building a clubhouse this summer and all the kids have loved running out in the field and participating. I love seeing your imaginations at work..not to mention the differences of a boy a girl. If I ask you it is a castle clubhouse, where as Mason tells me it is a jail on most occasions or a hideout from bad guys. This is you and Mason hard at work on the infamous clubhouse.

Hairs Cut

This pat weekend we were finally able to get your first haircut. You have been insistent that only Brie could cut your hair, and after the fits you have thrown at the dentist and doctors office I was not willing to battle that. So while we were up at Wolf Creek for the marathon mom bought some scissors and we put Brie to work. You sat perfectly still and were happy to let her cut your hair. My precious baby girl is really turning into such a beautiful BIG girl. Where has the time gone??
