These Faces

These 4 faces. 

We love them so...we love their energy, their excitement, their laughter, their silliness and their sweetness. Life is so full with these littles. Most times I'd like to stop time. It's going too fast for my taste. Sometimes I'd like to rewind and savor each moment again. Sometimes, I just need to shut my door and take a nap. 

These 2...best friends...whether they'd like to admit it or not.

 Birthday buddies this month.

They have their share of arguments but lately the good times outweigh the quarrels.

They play a mean game of cards people...just like the grown-ups...no "go-fish" for these 2.

They sing and hum....all day....everyday....so much... that I actually have to tell them to "STOP...PLEASE...PICK A DIFFERENT TUNE, I CAN'T STAND IT ANY LONGER!"

They both love to draw and I have an art gallery on my walls to prove it.

We love to hear them, along with Ans, talking in their room just before they fall asleep. The sound of the 3 of them giggling, chatting and singing...makes me smile.

This month...9 and 6. Oh my word. My little girl is 9! My baby Juju is 6! No more little...no more Juju...it's Jude-oh now. Juju is too baby-ish

This boy....3.5

He's a talker....extraordinaire.

He's never met a stranger.

He sometimes shares his faith uninhibited! I love that about him.

When he prays it's like Jesus is on the phone with him...the conversation is real and sweet.

He wants to be BIG! 

He's very proud to be starting Pre-K.

He is a strong kid who loves to be different and has a mind of his own...we're training that little mind currently. Lots of disciplines.

He's hilarious and his laugh is infectious.

My very big boy....although, if he had it his way, I reckon he would still be interested in nursing.:)

 This little man lights up our home with so much love and delight!

We are still in awe at how miraculous his life is to us.

His eyes!...(that's the comment I hear the most)...huge, full of wonder and beauty.

He melts us with every smile.

He will let everyone, stranger or friend, family or neighbor, hold him and will give them a smile and a snuggle.
Content and happy is his demeanor

Food, he could take it or leave it.....I think Mama's milk is his #1.

Still wakes up in the middle of the night.....so we're tired....muy.

Of all our children, I think he has the most nicknames....Sims, Simers, Simi,
Simeroo, Sim, Simosette, 

Our Sim-ohs.
