What a negligent mother am I! I have missed sharing significant highlights on our blog. Aliya is my sweet little baker, always thinking of surprising her sisters with sweet treats. On Valentine's Day, we made cupcakes while her sisters were in school, arranged them in the shape of a heart and hid them until dessert that evening. We set up a decoy (everyone thought Aliya was in trouble when I asked her to please come see me in the back room) and then this little peacock emerged, "Happy Valentine's Day!" Her sweet heart amazes me (not literally-the cupcakes-but her spirit and demeanor).
Unfortunately, I overlooked the fun red frosting could be. Taylor (a girl after my own heart) asked for just a spoonful of frosting (except, I'd ask for ice-cream to go with it.) And then look at those lips! Gorgeous I tell you! Madison and her friends have been busy with dance competitions. Her MiniKix class placed 2nd at the first competition. It's so fun to watch her dance. Derrick treated her to a date at Pizza Ranch after competing and then they returned to watch the entire evening of performances…what a dad! (Though he'll admit, that's a lot of girlyness!)_
Breanne is into being silly and rubber band looms lately. "Take a picture of me mom!" Her hair is getting soooo long!
And look what's different about our big girl Madison….look again. I'm not telling you. Prize to the first one to notice and post the answer in the comments. (And no, it's not that she's lost the Miss Piggy hair.)
