Today I am really thankful for these little rascals in my life.
If that doesn't make you smile then I am not sure what will. This wouldn't be considered a traditional family christmas card, but this is oh so typical. This is why I call them rascals. Of course baby Madi is cheerful with hands in the air and thigh rolls exposed, and Brent's got his struggling smile because this kid really is quite the camera one, but look what he's having to listen to, struggling much? The little thing he's listening to being my little 2 year old best friend. She's kinda of in that I'm gonna scream and cry whenever I want phase. Forgive her. She really is a cutie who runs to her own special beat on the drum. These kids are my joy. I've felt more love from these 3 kiddos in the past 2 years than by anyone ever before (except the little one is only 6 months, but time spent with her is always well spent!)
This is Brent Lee. He's a stud muffin, I know. Winner of kid right here. He has the sweetest eyes and the bravest heart. I am so proud to have him as a nephew, proud really doesn't do it justice to how much I love having him as a part of the family. He is adventurous, fun, creative, tough but yet still so very meek in his words and hugs. Plus he's got some seriously good dance moves and lyrics to songs! Love you Brent Lee.
This is little Miss.Priss, aka Kaitlyn marie. She is something else let me tell you. Her personality is rather different than mine, but something about this girl drew me in from the moment I knew she was on the way. I was born into a family where I have 3 older sisters, and I am the youngest girl. I didn't get the opportunity to have a little sister but rather had to be the little sister. I think she filled that place in my heart, my little sister, mini me, or best friend. She is strong in her will, expressive in her words and facial expressions, independent, loud, but kind and caring. Proud to call this little tute my best friend (first time we called her that she remarked right back and said "I am not a tute!").
This is Madison. She is an angel, can't you tell? She's different, good different. She is sweet, sincere, and genuinely happy. She's gonna be a light that shines bright, she won't know though, but everyone else will see it from across the room. She's got the cutest giggle, just makes you feel like she understands everything your saying and is laughing with you. I believe she's gonna see all the good in the world, and as my sister Whittney said
"You can see her soul in her eyes and it's just breathtaking".
It's really true and this little girl has a sweet sweet genuine soul. So excited to kiss her nose and cuddle with her soon, but even more excited to watch her grow up.
These kids are part of my world, and I've honestly given them a piece of my heart. Happy to call them mine, can't wait to see them, it's been the hardest thing living away from their sweet hearts, fun love, and morning cuddles. I am incredibly grateful to be an aunt.
Lots of Love.
