Bittersweet moments!!

As another school year is ending... I can only shed a few tears as I think about my first baby girl, Salena going off to Senatobia Middle school next year to be in the 3rd grade. Tuesday, May 17, 2011 I watched my precious little 2nd grader walked up to get her awards that she worked so hard for! Yes, I really did shed a few tears... seems like yesterday we were so excited to be expecting our first child and searching book after book for a such a special name for such a special little girl!!! Salena is so smart... already reading long "chapter" books as she calls them. She loves to announce to me when she has reached a new chapter because she is her Mimi's child thru and thru... she was so very proud of herself when she finished a whole book in 2 hrs.
The other day she was at the calendar counting down the days till school was out....then she said " Mom, I'm gonna miss school. When do we start again?" She wanted to start counting down those days!! lol
I surly don't ... I am ready for the summer to begin so we can have some hot weather fun!! I love Salena with all my heart... she is me made over, inside and out! lol

 

This August my little man Maddox will be going to pre-school K-4.  He is getting so big... and everyday I am learning new little things about him. Someone asked me the other day if he got jealous when we had baby Paisley... NEVER once did the precious little guy get jealous. He loves his sisters with all his heart! He misses Salena everyday she goes to school... he ask "When are we going to get Salena?" EVERYDAY! lol  He also LOVES to say that he will babysit Paisley for me. Yes I know, don't freak out...he only means around the house when I am in another room. haha He will come and let me know everything she is doing and if she is in trouble! lol IT's so sweet!! I love to watch him kiss and love on her so much!
The other day on the way to church he said "Mom, I am going to get the Holy Ghost tonight" It was so sweet. He has prayed for the Holy Ghost before and it was beyond precious... with his little hands raised straight up and saying very loud and clear " I love you Jesus, I love you Jesus" It makes my heart just swell with love for them even more! Maddox is a pure mommy's boy and I wouldn't have it any other way!!! :)

On to Ms. Paisley, who in 18 days will turn the big "1" She is full of life and keeps us laughing every min. She is the fastest crawler in North Mississippi....but hasn't yet started walking. I am wondering if she will before her birthday... the first 2 had just started walking a few weeks before their 1st birthday so I am waiting and wondering! Paisley is just pure beautiful to me, just like the other ones are! She is a very happy baby!! A little Spoiled hehe.... but a TRUE daddies girl thru and thru!!!!  It's precious to watch as he walks in the door she just throws herself at him!!! hehe She also LOVES to eat... she is my fattest baby ever!!! hehe I always wanted a fat baby...if you have food... Paisley is going to want some!!! We have gave her many different things to try and she has liked it ALL.... she has not turned down ANYTHING yet!! lol She will let you know when she is ready for the next bite when you are feeding her... it is to funny!!! lol
Paisley already LOVES church. She waves her hands, sings, and claps during worship service... Its just pure precious.... have I said that yet... that she is just pure precious!!! lol
Well now that she is done with breakfast it is time to move on to something else. Guess its time for me to end these milestone updates!! Need to start the day and see what new adventures we can get into today!
These 3 are my precious dreams come true!!! I always wanted to have a family that I never had and I have it today!!!! GREAT blessings from God above!!! He has been good to me!
Now I won't forget that it all started with my best friend, Andrew Mills. He was sent from heaven above to be my knight and shining armor!!! He didn't come on a white horse but a Toyota Camry was good enough for me! lol
I love him with all my heart!!! It has been a wonderful 10 years and 8 months ... I wouldn't change one day of it.... except his wreck maybe!  But he is a wonderful husband and an awesome father!!!


Until next time ....
