Sometimes it takes celebrating a birthday to make me realize that the time is speeding by.
It's the moments between the desperate countdown to bedtime and the lazy days at the park that seem to slip by unaccounted for.
I feel like this last year I have gone from feeling overwhelmed and out numbered, to having two little girls who delight me with all of their chatter, ideas, and quarks.
I hope I am blessed to share many more of your birthdays! I love you.
Maya doesn't simper and aim to please nearly as much as her sister but she places great value in being funny.
She is constantly asking me if it was funny when she said/did __________.
She hates compliments and prefers it if we treat he as if she were an animal.
Her little fingers are named "tickles" and they enjoy dancing and creeping along your neck.
She has a Chicken puppet who celebrates his birthday nearly every day with singing, a cake and a party with all of the other toys in attendance.
Maya loves being the little sister, and Layla loves being a good big sister.
