Some Of My Favorite Things

So having children is a blessing but I do have to say having two little girls who love to write little notes and leave them around the house is an EXTRA blessing. This is a common sight around our house and for that I am so thankful! This was all just in the last three days. I kinda beat myself up for not capturing more of this and taking more pictures but then I realized I would have to post way more often to capture all the notes and we all know with not even having posted our Padre trip (who am I kidding - we just realized it was a year ago that we were in Disneyland and those 

pictures have yet to appear)...so I am just happy to find and capture even these few little notes scattered throughout the house. It makes for a lot of papers and piles but for that I can smile at what is taking up space. 

Thanks girls for being writers and always knowing how to make this mama smile. 

 Brooklyn had written this in my grocery notebook tonight

Poor Brooklyn has had the stomach virus since Monday night so we were giving her some crackers and gatorade and Kennedy wrote this on her napkin - smile 

one of Brooklyn's many many creations - she literally sits down every morning at the craft table - she has made us get our money out of it for sure - and creates something. This happened to be a picture/toothbrush holder that she proudly taped to Tim's mirror for his toothbrush. Notice her latest love in drawing on the left side; two trees with a hammock 

 B left this for me in my bathroom - hearts, love them!

I often find notes from K on Mondays before I leave for Bible Study. She is almost ten years old and I have been doing this study for almost 7 years and she still doesn't like when I leave so she gets her therapy in writing - I will take it! 

Brooklyn drew this for Tim on Monday Night Football - GO Texans!! 

 She is the most appreciative and expressive child ever - very thoughtful and always telling others.

And notice she dated it!!! I told her awhile ago I am not the best at dating things right away and how important it is so she takes it upon herself to date them.

See - so thoughtful and appreciative.

And Vern is what Tim calls anyone who is around, his little nickname for the kids 

Love Brooklyn's "I Like" and so glad it's still her daddy and not some boy yet!

I will pull these out again when they are teenagers and they have stopped talking all together I am sure but in the meantime I will enjoy every little pile and note around.
