Too far gone??? No way!!!!


I just realized how few post that I had written this past year.  What a busy year it was and so noteworthy!  Instead of being a SAHM, I worked...a lot.  Between my office job, planning a wedding, working at Mainstay Farm, making and selling my jewelry and bows and now teaching an afternoon class of three year old children I just didn't make time to fill in the blanks in type as I did so often in my head.

 

Both Hunter and Morgan have grown and changed so much this year.  They are amazing and beautiful children.  We are so blessed.  Don't get me wrong, they each have a very strong personality of their own.  However, I know that God will use that strength to help them later in life.  Hunter is still all about sports and girls and not necessarily in that order.  He had his first real heart break.  His voice quit cracking.  He worked both helping Wes weld fences during the summer and at Mainstay Farm in concessions and later with the Christmas Trees.  I was so very proud watching him be a leader among his coworkers.  It was a great experience for both of us.  Right now he is playing baseball.  He is very excited about making an elite team.  He has a new sweet love and is maturing as a young man every day. 

Morgan is into well...everything.  Her vocabulary is amazing!  She loves to tell us about how the "chicken bonked her head!" at her Gimmy's and how the chickens say, "bock do"!  Gimmy saved her from the chickens of course.  She dances all over the place to Daddy's songs.  She loves the song "Bear Loves Honey".  Every morning she looks out the window for the sun and announces that it is a good day and when she finds it is dark or sees the moon it is sleep time.  Too bad she doesn't actually go to sleep when she announces it.  She is quite the night owl.  Morgan is also a crazy little mini me.  She tries to stir the tea, beat the eggs, wash the dishes, sweep the floor, sort the laundry, match our clothes (she picks out mine...so fun), wrap her hair in a towel like mine, you name it.  It is amazing how much you will grow as a person when you have a little mirror following your every step.
