i remember finding out for sure that we were having a girl, i was like "how can i love this baby girl, i love ellie so much...how will this work?" because, i could not understand how it would work, i knew logically it would work out, but how???
all i can say is this...it's just different! each baby brings something new to the table. each babe causes me to love more, deeper, wider, stronger, and so differently. there is no favorite. i dont love one more than the other but, i do love each of them differently. they are each so different, how could i not?
i am blown away by how my love for jo jo is so radically different with ellie. ellie is my little helper, the joyful ray of sunshine that we so desperately needed. nate is my strong leader, the force that the world will recon with, the child who must know everything, always thinking, always trying to keep up with the adults. while his soft, sensitive side is shown in secret (unless you mess with his sisters, then he will go ninja on you) nate the first born, so smart, so focused, such a soft, tender heart
then i have jo. my little jo. my little good baby. she blends in, she's quiet, she's happy, so happy. i can not imagine not having her quiet soft presence in our family. such a wonderful baby. my baby for always. so thankful for her.
ok enough with the seriousness. must go back to fun and folly!
ellie playing her game. she disappears when the glasses are on. such a hoot to watch her actually think we cant see her. hahaha
nate and i are studying whales at the moment, and i threw in this independent reader at the same time. it's AWESOME! the book goes hand in hand with the curric. talk about perfect luck! ha. land of 1000 whales has turned into a read out loud book, cause i wanted to read it. haha
