The Girls

May is a big month for birthdays at our house: Sarah's on the 3rd and Hannah's on the 27th. This year they turned 8 and 10 respectively. A few observations...


Sarah - high energy; constantly snapping her fingers; turning brown already; experimenting with her hair (not cutting it, just constantly changing from one pony to 2, then a headband, then all down, french braid, a bun...you get the idea); avid artist; animal adorer; contemplating a dog-walking "business" this summer; accident prone; every injury, sniffle, or bug bite is a BIG deal; natural leader (hopefully in mostly positive ways); loves time with friends; spendthrift; crazy idea sharer; attention monger; good worker; just learned to drive the lawn mower; avoids pain like the plague; "Take my picture Mom!"

Hannah - can find her reading every chance she gets; constantly "stretching" her fingers; comfy clothes wearer; loves all things green; sweet tooth; contemplating a babysitting (at our house) or back rub (for family only) "business" this summer; loud gum chewer; loves to listen to adults conversing; likes trying new things; watches people - socially aware; lots of friends, but prefers to hang out with them individually; easily excitable, just as easily down in the dumps; snuggler; thinker; great with young children; love language=quality time and physical touch; can take a joke and dish them out; developing her own sense of style; camera avoider

Glad to be blogging again!
