Loving Life

Almost two weeks ago we celebrated the birth of our used to be youngest Abby. She turned seven. There are so many things I love about this little girl. She is such a goofball and loves to be silly in order to get the rest of the family to laugh. She has several very strong loves and incorporates these loves into as much of her daily life as possible. They are: peanut butter, bunnies, soft and fuzzy things, sparkly things, and pretty dresses. She wears skirts and dresses every single day. The idea of wearing pants without a dress or skirt over top is synonymous with death to her. She is outgoing, friendly, and very cheerful. She hoards her candy and slowly savors it - she still has candy from before Christmas. How does she do that? Her heart is tender and caring and she cries when she feels she has done something wrong to hurt someone. She adores her baby sister and wants to carry her where ever she goes. Big dogs and thunderstorms frighten her. So do most movies, therefore she doesn...

 Hey Everyone! It's me, Keilah. Mom hasn't written in awhile again, so I figured I had better get on here and post an update before even Grandma grows weary from the wait and stops looking for cute pictures of me. Mom claims to be busy and not have time to sit down and write a post. I don't know about that. I'm not sure what her issue is since she seems to have plenty of time to sit down and hold me all day long.  Anyway, it's been awhile since I last wrote and a lot has changed in my life now that I'm a big 5 1/2 month old kid. A couple of weeks ago, Mom got out the coolest new toy for me. She calls it an exersaucer. I call it Heaven on Earth. Before this, I had only two different toys that I got to play with. Mr. Star and Mr. Elephant. They were small and fun, but the moment she placed me in this beauty, I was in Toy Heaven. I was surrounded by toys. It was such a glorious sight. I didn't know which way to look  Or which toy to eat first.  ...

Well, I'm still here, despite not blogging for a week. :) I don't have any excuse to offer other than I didn't take time to sit down and blog. Life has slowed down some and for that I'm grateful. Our house is still on the market and we've had quite a few showings. I've kept my house cleaner than it's ever been in my life. I keep it to where I can have it spotless within two hours at the most. Usually it would be more like 1 or 1-1/2 hours to quickly tidy up. In one way I like having a really clean house. But in another way, it's kind of overrated. If I lived like this all the time, I think I would get really stressed out by continually cleaning and reminding everyone to clean up their messes. But thankfully this house on the market thing has happened at a good time in my life where I can handle it. School for David is winding down, so his days aren't as full now as he finishes up his remaining subjects. My work at church has been handed off and so I...
