something to write about….?????

So…I thought I would just take a picture and write about it. This is my very cute daughter who is getting cuter and cuter by the day. I think the Lord makes it this way so that you don’t get too mad when they are driving you nuts.
Anyways….it seems like I can never stay caught up with anything much less the laundry so we have resorted to playing with the clean clothes now. Ruth is my new excuse for my closet being a disaster. Yes, I still make a mess in there, but this little girl’s favorite past time is taking everything off the shelves and now that she is standing she can reach all hanging cloths and pull off hangers. I will try and get a picture that captures this craziness.
All this to say…..I have given up on trying to make everything perfect and working hard to not stress out when everything doesn’t get done. Instead we are playing in the laundry and loving each other. I love this little girl and my handsome husband. Ta-ta for now.
welcome to the sweetest and most difficult part of parenting.
Letting go.
Always keep an image of Leigh in your mind and heart
when it all seems so overwhelming.
Remember her grace, her laughter and that the
time we have is the greatest gift our mighty,
perfect creator trusted you with.
