Blessings!

About two years ago, my cousin Kim and her children sent us a huge blessing in the mail! It was so exciting! We got like 4-5 HUGE boxes mailed ALL the way from Washington, D.C.! It was filled with SUPER nice clothes that our Cousin Emma and Cousin Noah had outgrown. What a huge blessing. Of course the girlie clothes were so adorable... BUT Tatiana was like a size 3-4 when she came home. So, while it was unfortunate she couldn't wear the clothes then, it is nice that she has had some clothes to grow in to! She has had a growth spurt all of a sudden! She is ALMOST 49 lbs, and very tall...(not sure the inches on that one!) Anyways, this seemed to happen last year to, that her uniform pants turned into high-waters after vacation. We went and bought her a few more pair yesterday. It's nice that they are growing...but kindof sad that my babies are getting bigger....

I wonder as we pack her clothes away, will "Sister" like these as much. "Will she be bigger/smaller? Will she even be able to wear them?" Then, my thoughts drift to... "I wonder what she's doing now..." and then, to, "God, YOU got YOUR eye on her... take care of her, Father."

Thanks, Kim and Cousin Em for the "cool threads!" Love the dresses and coats and all the other goodies! You have been a blessing! Enjoy the snow! And send us some pics!

Mami: "Tatiana, what's up with the goofy smile?"

Tatiana: "Mami, I want everybody to see I lost my second tooth!!"

Mami: "Good point, Tatiana! Smile big! Let me see your tongue! Cool!"
