February 21

So much has happened in the last couple weeks and i have been trying to keep up with journaling and writing and scrapping. It takes time but here are a few memories caught on camera.

Natalee was in her first play. It was so cute and i must admit I smiled everytime she came on stage. She asked after the long week of rehearsals and then her first performance...."Do i have to do this again next year?" I answered only if she wanted to and after a moment she replied, "good, I 'll have to think about it, It might not be my favorite thing." It was cute and I was impressed with her sense of forethought, she didn't totally give it up but realized she needed to think about it.



Next came Natalee's 6th birthday. I can only say, Princess, tea, girls, food and fun. David had a great time putting it on for her and I had a great time preparing it. I must admit I am a bit disappointed in myself for not getting pictures of David and the girls.



Next Alex's baptism...words cannot express the joy this mother felt as her son entered the waters for baptism. I know he is only 8 but I also know he felt something special about this day and it is one that he will always remember. How can you not when you are surrounded by so many family and friends who love you.
