Our two little Texas stars playing in the bluebonnets! This was taken this past April 2008 in a church field near our house. I love this picture because it shows the love between Maren and Sophia, which never seems to end! They are best friends! And, despite the heat right now, I can say I love spring time here in Texas when the wildflowers come out! I will miss them!

First Day of School--hallelujah!

Maren and Sophie were SO excited to start Mother's Day Out this past week at Yorktown Baptist Church. Maren is a "Bumblebee" this year, and it's her third year in the program! Sophie joined big sissy and is in the "Ducks" class. Sophie did even better than I anticipated, she did not cry at drop-off, and slept on a nap mat for the first time with no problems! I was not even worried as I left the door of the building, and it was much much easier to leave this time around (when Maren started 2 years ago she was howling and I remember thinking they were torturing her and "Oh my God, what have I done!)
