I love my little girls.

So I just read a blog of memories of a little boy that died last year. I don't even know this family it was just a link I clicked on... needless to say I just spent the last ten minutes crying like I haven't cried in a long time. That blog inspired me to be a better mother and enjoy my girls and the crazy things they do.
I love my little girls. They are so happy and cute.

Carlie is so smart and loving. She always wants to help me cook or clean or take care of Sarah Jane. She will often give Sarah Jane a hug and say "I'm so proud of you Sarah Jane Sue". She will just come sit on my lap and say "I love you Mom". Carlie has been on a kick about colors. She asks us all the time what our favorite color is then she will tell us her favorite color which is usually the color of the shirt she's wearing, although blue seems to come up quite often. Last Sunday Carlie passed off her first Article of Faith, she has to say it for the Bishop and then he gives her a candy. She was so happy! He challenged her to memorize the second by the next week and I made some remark about how transgression was a big word but we would work on it. Well, yesterday she passed off the second one! I am so proud of her, she is such a smart little girl!

Sarah Jane is growing up so fast. She is so happy and smiling all the time. She loves to play in the bathroom or get into the cupboards in the kitchen. She loves Carlie and gets so bored when Carlie is taking a nap. We just recently got a van and she is loving it. The Neon was so small and had such small windows and now she is just content to stare out the window at any and everything. She makes getting up in the morning, for me, a good experience. She is soooo excited to see me walk through the door she starts laughing! Then she busts up when she sees Carlie. Sarah Jane is such a sweet baby and makes life fun! She is learning One Little Monkey! I will have to post a video on here, she is just too cute!
