Right Now

~She is a sponge....soaking up reading, the bible, math.....anything and everything.



~She is my HGTV buddy....loves to watch House Hunters with me.



~She is super-organized! I never knew how Type-A she was until she had her own room.



~Organizing has become a hobby. Her bookshelves have a system.



~She is so compassionate and loves little kids. She spends all her time at the gym, taking care of whichever small child is crying for their mom. She should seriously be on their payroll.



~She is bossy!



~She is athletic, rarely looses a point when sparring in karate, scores goals at soccer, is a great swimmer, and flips with no hands on the trampoline.



~She loves animals of all kinds.



~She is very responsible and does what is expected of her on her own. She manages her own chore chart, I don't even have to remind her of it.



~She is crazy brave.....rides every roller coaster she can get on!


~She is our most dramatic.



~She is funny and carefree.
~She climbs into bed with us in the middle of the night once or twice a week. She is my snuggler.
~She is messy and can't usually find the things she is looking for.
~She loves babies and taking care of them.
~She is Gracyn's buddy lately.
~She loves to go on errands with us. Tommy or I, anywhere, she just likes to ride along.
~She has no use for a chore chart, or any prize I might give her for completing said chart.
~She loves her school and Mrs. Megan.
~She is brave and rides all the rides she is tall enough for.
~She is learning to swim and holds her own in a karate class full of much older kids.
~She doesn't let things bother her. She is my optimist.
~She loves her bible. She brings it to us every night and tells us it is the most important book.
~She loves to play her music in her room.
~She can work the iphone better than I can.
~She is SMART and picks up things very quickly.
~She is a skinny minny.....She may be in dresses all summer, because I can't keep anything on her waist.
~She thinks breaking rules is only a problem if you get caught!


~She is a treasure hunter. We have no idea where she finds the stuff, but she comes home daily with pockets full of anything small and sparkly....sequins, jewels, paint-ball pellets. You name it, she will find it.

~She is a mess....a funny, emotional, sassy mess. (Aren't all 2 year olds)

~She is potty trained....when she wants to be.

~She has the sweetest voice.

~She says the best prayers.

~She loves to sing....Jesus loves Me, Granny's Song (Amazing Grace) and You Never Let Go are favorites.

~She loves Llama, Llama books.

~She loves to swing, slide and feed the ducks at the park.

~She is much more cautious than my other 2.

~She likes to rock.

~She is super compassionate. She doesn't like anyone to be hurt or upset.....this includes family members, characters in books or people on TV.

~She has a BIG imagination. We hear all sorts of stories she makes up. Usually, right now, they are about her "pet alligator". Don't' worry, he is nice.

~She tickles us when she is in trouble. If we get on to her, she immediatly starts her little fingers on our tummies and says, "Tickle, tickle, tickle."

~She is our baby and we treat her accordingly.


~She would live on popcorn, fruit snacks and orange juice alone, if I would let her.

Such sweet girls! I wish we were closer so that they could teach Brylee how to be as compassionate as they are. One thing's for sure: she has their sense of style (from their hand-me-downs) and loves to read, just like them!
