It's me!

OK, so I played catch up all night. For some reason I feel like I need to post pics from the last 6 months, since I have not blogged at all. So I went back and posted pics to try to fill in the gap. Again, I know this is not how "blogging" is supposed to work. You are supposed to blog the "day of", but I feel like I can still catch you all up on our life this way??!!

I still have to post pics for May. Which has been a busy month. Maya turned 5 and Simone turned 1!!! April showers bring May flowers. This is so true. God has blessed me with 2 beautiful flowers, which I nourish and take care for and they are blooming into these amazing little creatures! God is good! Maya keeps asking for me to have another baby girl, which is very funny, if you all remember she wanted a baby brother, not a baby girl when I was preggo with Simone. She says she is so happy Simone is a girl and wants more!!! So we will see, not sure if we will get another girl, but she will be a great big sis no matter what the gender is.

Today we went to get their 1 and 5 yr old routine Dr. visits. Simone had 2 shots and a finger prick. Maya had 4 shots and a urine sample. Maya was a rockstar and didn't even flinch. Simone cried a bit, but not long at all. They were great!

I'm dealing with the thought of Maya going to kindergarten this fall and it's so overwhelming. She is my little baby, we have this bond and it is one of a kind. The thought of her going off to school and getting on a bus and not having me hold her hand and walk her into class everyday is making me very sad. She amazes me with her personality and the way she looks at life. Her innocence and vulnerability as a little person with this whole big world ahead of her. So many choices and obstacles that await her. I know it is just kindergarten, but I know there are many moms out there who can relate. I know she will do just fine and we will BOTH get through it, but I feel once she starts kindergarten the early grade school years will just fly by. I'm going to just keep on hugging her tightly and letting her know I'm here and she can come to me with whatever she is going through knowing mom will help her and be here for her!

I will post pics of the party at Morkes Chocolate, the girls had fun!!!
