Afterall, She Is My Daughter

Tonight laying in bed I listened to Sarina singing to herself. She does this a lot in bed before falling asleep, in the middle of the night, and early in the morning. Sometimes all in the same night. I could hear little snippets of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star mixed with Row, Row, Row Your Boat (or Row Row as she calls it), along with parts of the alphabet song and various words like Mommy, Daddy, Ben and Molly thrown in just to keep things moving along I guess. As I lay there I remembered how I shared a room with my two older sisters and I used to sing to my stuffed animals while sisters#1 and #2 yelled at me to stop my singing and go to sleep. She is my girl!

Yes and Michael Joseph used to sing on the potty...Clay loves to sing on the potty but he doesn't remove all of his clothes to potty. Michael Steven sings like his mommmy..you really don't want that boy to sing. It's awful!
Sammi is the loudest singer EVER! You should have seen that girl in her little Christmas shows at school.

You didn't just sing, you also rocked the whole three story bed!
Thank God Sarina doesn't have to share a bed with others or there would be big fights in the family.

Well, Anthony has taken to running. He can run from our house, down to the track, around the track and back to our house. That little guy just loves to run. Thank God I can keep up with him. I doubt that I will be able to much longer. Maybe he will be a long distance runner? Not that Ana though, she is just along for the ride. She waves, sends kisses and smiles at everyone. A real princess Di, that Ana is.

That litte Jon Jon can now ride his two wheel bike without the training wheels. Not sure I have ever heard of a 3 year old that could do this. Very hard to run along side this little guy too.

Man, you would think I could lose some weight? BUT NO! Not a pound. Although Larry has lost weight. About 15 pounds. He is looking very cute. But, alas, the Naunie is still plump.

I always enjoy the stories of the kids. It is like a miricale that they are so much like you and Mark.

I all so can not sing.
Anthony has always loved to run, glad he gets the chance to run with someone. Ana is diffently the Princes.
However her cousin has yet to establish her place Mia Rose,growing.
