My girls...

Ali is growing up so beautifully and I don't want to miss it. She still has her moments, but has become increasingly easier as the days go by! She's doing well in school finally, but that could have something to do with the threat of summer school looming... and she's easier for me in the mornings for the most part. She's 8 1/2 now and seriously can't wait to be a teenager. She's obsessed with all things girl and has some of the cutest freckles I've ever seen... including the big one right on the end of her nose! Love you Beans!

And then there's Mya.  She's been a part of our lives for 12 years now!  She's really getting old, and has some funny quirks in her old age- like digging in the mud with her nose.  She can't stand up for too long cause her legs get shaky and even running and walking proves difficult.  She loves our children, and it was never a question that she belonged with us.  Even though she doesn't get out much, we love our Mya dog-

Nothing real life-changing, just things I want to remember in the years to come.

BEAUTIFUL picture of Ali. She is getting so big...Can we go back to the beginning for a little while? I hardly remember that chubby little baby girl.

Mya is 12? Wow! She is almost as old as Shatze. I think Shatze is in better health though dang it :)
