My Sweet Girl

I've written before how my sweet Bailey will just randomly melt my heart and say, "Mom?  I love you."  Well, this morning, she said that and then she continued, "You know what I love best?  I love all my family be safe so I don't be scared."  That little girl has so much love inside her and it is such a blessing to have her in our family!  She always talks about how she loves all her family.  Whenever she plays with a toy, she tells me how it's a part of our family now.  My favorite was when she told me baby Jesus was a part of our family now.  Whenever she draws (which she LOVES to do) at least one of the pictures is of our family.  She's such a precious reminder of love! :)

Update: 1/1/12  Last week I had the stomach flu.  Ken said she was pretty worried about me.  They came up to visit and B said, "But Mom, you have to make us dinner!"  Then she crawled up next to me and patted my arm and said, "Don't worry.  You always be our Mom, ok?"
