With little Busy Body's 2nd birthday happening tomorrow I am noticing that we are in what I am gonna call a growing pains pattern.  All my girls' seem to be going into a new phase of their lives.  Busy Body is leaving being a baby behind and headed (very fast it seems SNIFF) into the world of being a big girl.  Diva is building more detailed interests and friendships of late.  Love Bug is displaying that she is my child that is happy being with others but equally happy all on her own which none of them have ever done until her.  KK is immersed in teenage land.....we just this year started to like catching up with friends on the phone more as well as being social became more important.  This has made be much more aware down the line with choices in friends.  We have had a few we have had to weed out because they weren't good friend material.....then after those few experiences she has weeded out a few herself.  Goals and Dreams are ever changing but they all have Christ at the center of it all and that makes my heart soar.  My girls' are each so different but I am nothing but pleased that they each have a heart for Jesus!!!!  Today watching them together as I often catch myself doing just reminds me how thankful I am for each of them and the things each one brings to my life.  In just a few monthswe will be going on a vacation possibly just the girls' and I which we are all having so much fun coming up with ideas for.  We are hoping Dad can get the time off to come with us though.  In about 3 months KK will be 16 and we will be approaching learning to drive (glad that is something Dad gets to teach ;), look out world LOL!  Then we will have Love Bug turning the big 7 which she is already talking about.  This summer Diva will turn 11 and then start middle school which she thinks is going to be "way cool".  I am hoping I can just survive all these things with my nerves intact!!!!

Plans for the rest of the day:
Light picking up, sweeping, cook dinner, kitchen clean up, reading with Diva and Love Bug (back to normal bedtime schedule since school starts back on Tuesday), get stuff out for church, and hopefully some scrapbooking
