I'm determined to make the best of a new school year, but before I embrace it fully, I have to say this to my girls: I love the way you've grown this summer!
Laura Finley,
I love your bright blue eyes...
...the way they stop me in my tracks
and remind me to live life to the full.
I love the way you sparkle...
I love your bright blue eyes...
...the way they stop me in my tracks
and remind me to live life to the full.
I love the way you sparkle...
...the way you shine from deep inside.
I love the way you love...
...the way you snuggle up in my arms
and call me "Sweet Angel Mama."

Hallie,
I love your tender spirit...
I love your tender spirit...
...the way you sit still and ponder deeply.
I love the way you spend your time...
...the way you make the most of every moment.
I love the way you spend your time...
...the way you make the most of every moment.
I love the way you make me laugh...
...the way you share the sunshine in your soul
and make this world a brighter place.
I'm so thankful for another summer...for the long, lazy days that allowed my girls lots of room to grow and become more of who God made them to be!and make this world a brighter place.
Sweet Hallie and Laura Finley, I'll miss you when you're gone, but I hope you'll remember this as you start another school year on Wednesday morning: I love the way you've grown...and I'm SO proud to be your mama!
Happy Back To School Week!

So sweet Lindsey - they are adorable girls and I LOVE the way you LOVE them. You are such a sweet mama and it shows. Be blessed and good luck with the new school year.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful way you have captured another milestone in your daughters' lives. They are beautiful and your mamma's heart is beautiful! Thinking of y'all (that word is growing on me here) as you embrace a new school year and delight in all that God has in store for them AND for you!

First, blogging in the bathroom never sounded so good! Cabernet and truffles - get out! You make me laugh.
ReplyDeleteIsn't the growth one of God's most profound miracles? Wow. You've captured it all right here. Wonderful...simply wonderful.
Here's to a fantastic year...
Even though I have never met them your wonderful photos truly tell the story of how unique they are..what a lucky momma you are!! My children teach me so much about myself....I pray that I have been as able a teacher to my boys as they have been to me!! This is a big year in our home as my youngest son begins his senior year and and my college sophomore prepares to head back to Ohio. I love seeing my boys become men...it's been one of the greatest joys in my life....I wouldn't have changed a thing...God always knows what he's doing!
ReplyDeleteReading your blog I am inspired to get off my computer and hug my little ones tight. Your family is very lucky!
ReplyDeleteAww... how sweet! What a special mama you are Linsey. Your girls are precious. You are precious!
ReplyDeleteThank you, sweet friends. Its a joy to share my girls with you, and the best part is that they love this post! My oldest cracked up over the last photo of herself...scrunched up face and all. Her laughter is like sunshine!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
Linsey
