My dear, sweet, very much opinionated toddler has decided she doesn't like falling asleep in her bed. She'd rather fight and fight and fight until she just can't take it anymore.

And you never know where her nap will take place. 

Wal-Mart?

Kitchen counter while coloring?

 

Oh goodness! 

Letter to Little {Brother}.

Dear Little Brother,

How fast has this time flown? My belly expands and makes room for your glorious, growing little body, and I can't believe we are just a few short weeks from meeting.  Love waits for you here. It longs to hold you and to wrap you ever so tightly in the sweetness of family.

You have Ellery to cover you in slobbery kisses.
Your sweet daddy will sing his soft lullabies in your tiny, little ears.
And I, darling boy, will strive everyday to give you more love than you know what to do with.

I long to hold you in my arms and show you all the beauty this big world has to offer. For I love you beyond words and can't wait for your precious arrival to make our family all the more complete.

Love upon love,

Mama.
