Angels

via

After my children were tucked for the evening, in I was summoned by my big girl.  When I arrived in her room and asked her what she needed she said this:

"Momma, I want to go check on my little sister."
I then asked, "Are you worried about her because she was sick today?"
She responded: "No."  " I want to go see her because she thinks there are monsters in her room."

I then I reassured, "But we don't have any monsters in our house, right?"
She promptly said, "Yes, we only have angels.  They fly around our room and watch us while we sleep."

I sat stunned by her sweet words that were so eloquently stated.  These are the moments I just don't ever want to forget.

Another year...

Another year has passed even quicker than before and we're celebrating another glorious year of our big girl's life.  They just keep getting better as our love grows deeper than we could have ever imagined.  Happy Birthday sweet girl!

I have been inspired by my fellow bloggers to do a little interview on her birthday as well as randomly throughout the year.  It will be neat to see how her answers change.
