So as I sit in this very brief moment of quiet I am reflecting on the oh so precious children we have been blessed with. I'm no poet or a fantastic writer but wanted to put in to words the wonderful things about my daughters through my eyes.
Both are beautiful but very different and yet a lot alike. One is very much a girlie girl and loves everything princess-related- gowns, high heels and ballet. The other enjoys airplanes, trucks, helicopters and enjoys a messy hair day. The eldest is put together, organized and enjoys order and routine while the youngest flies by the seat of her pants and would be up for just about anything at anytime. Kaleigh is obedient and rarely questions authority. She does what she's told and usually will just take what you say as truth and move on. Loganne not so much. She wants a place in this world and she sure is willing to fight you for it. It's challenging but so cute when she is fighting with me and yet I can tell she knows she's wrong. If we can figure out how to harness that amazing spirit she'll be unstoppable. Kaleigh loves being around people and sharing stories, making everyone laugh and being center of attention. Loganne has her spotlight moments but very often can be found quietly playing in her room all by herself. We pray that Loganne will be like Kaleigh and have a true heart for God. Kaleigh loves reading her "B-I-B-L-E" and saying memory verses. Although Loganne is not quite there she sure does love to pray and most of the time truly only God knows what she just said. We all catch the very loud Amen though.
The gifts we have been given are different but very much the same. Loganne watches, studies and repeats everything her big sister does and Kaleigh takes her example role very seriously. They both love books, watching movies, singing and dancing. They both know how to rock out to some good ole country music and love their daddy very much. Both are polite, loving and sweet. Both enjoy sleeping (just like their mom) and both enjoy laughing (even when they have to force out a fake laugh to get some attention). Neither child misses a thing and repeats just about anything said by their mommy! They are a true joy and we are so grateful for them!
