All in a day's time

Jaycee Kate is a super funny kid! She says some of the best one liner's I have even heard. Today she said two funny quotes that I just had to make sure that I wrote down. This morning about an hour after she woke up she said "Boys wear bows in their hair in France. But we are not in France." That's right baby girl we are in TEXAS and there will be no bows on boys here!! Then after a long day she was in the car with her nana and told her that "Bacon makes everybody nice." Then later as she was going to bed she said "I think I might get thirsty in the night" and her Nana said "well I put a cup of water next to the bed." She then asked "Why did you do that?" Nana said "In case you get thirsty" to which she replied "That's a good in case." In the past she has also said things like "Kill joy" under her breath when I ask her to pick up her room, "My face is melting off" when she got in a hot car, "Your angry eyes scare me", when she's getting in trouble and "EWW there's a naked man" as we passed our neighbor with his shirt off and our windows in the car down!!

She also says very inspirational things too. The most recent being after we read about Satan tempting Jesus to turn the rocks into bread while he was fasting she said "I would tell Satan that I am NOT going to make those rocks bread because I am not going to listen to you and I do not want to live with Satan." Amen sister!

End Of May

Along with the end of spring comes the end of Stepping Stones for Jaycee Kate. This has been a fantastic preschool for her to learn and grow. She has enjoyed it immensely!! She is going to really miss all her friends and especially teacher Sherri. She has been a blessing in our lives and we thank God that he choose the perfect school for Jaycee Kate to get prepared for Kindergarten. She had her end of year celebration, where she excelled in dressing up like a kitty everyday and smiles. She was definitely the most active on the stage, she was dancing and singing her heart out. She had a very interesting job picked out for herself for when she grows up. She wants to be a pet doctor who rides a motorcycle. I couldn't be more proud!

Why I started a blog

The Inspiration

I was driving home the other day after a wonderful Mother's Day tea with my three children. Every one was hot, sweaty or in Jaycee Kate's words, when it's hot outside my head gets wet. Jackson 9 months and Jolie 23 months were needing a nap in the worst way. As I drove Jackson began to doze off. Once he was asleep Jolie reached over, their car seats are side by side, and held his hand. It was so precious! She held his hand until she finally went to sleep as well. They held hands and napped the rest of the way home. It was so sweet to see the sibling love when most of the time your breaking up fights. Jolie was very loving and affectionate to Jackson the first few months after he was born, but lately she has been none to thrilled at having a younger brother who is now mobile. She used to hold his hand in the car all the time when he was a few weeks old especially if he was upset. It was one of the sweetest things to see two people you love, love on each other.

I decided to make a blog page after this incident. I wanted to be able to remember, write down, and share all the wonderful little things that happen in your children's life that too often get forgotten and overlooked. I hope to make share and preserve our precious memories.
