Kirby cuteisms

Our spunky little girl sure fits her name.  She is goofy, clever, and full of charm.  She really cracks up lately.  She also fits her middle name, Rose, very well.  Lots of sincere sweetness seeps from her very core.  Tonight CR was setting up the crib in Patton's room.  I know,I know ...kind of late,but it's been working for us.  Kirby walked in and asked him, "hey daddy, whatcha doing?  That's my old bed.  That's my bed?  In Patton's room?  Why is my bed in Patton's room?"  My heart just stopped.  So I hear CR take a deep breath and say, "well sugar, since you have a new big girl bed, can Patton use your old bed?"  Silence and my heart still stopped.  Then I hear the sweetest music to my ears.  "Sure he can." Spoken softly and with genuine love.

Now for some spunk:
Yesterday morning she was eating bacon at the breakfast table.  She said, "look I have a boat."  She shows CR and I her half eaten crispy bacon.  I responded,"well who is on your boat?" Thinking I would hear "Jonah", she smiles and says "Jesus!"  About 30 seconds later she says, "ups, I ate Jesus?"

Her response to everything right now: sure, sure I can

Her Imagination is bizarre right now.  She tells us often,"shhh, my baby is sleeping.  I need yous to be quiet he needs to sleep and not wake up. Shhh."

She's beginning to ask questions and put things together.  She is a pure joy and I love her more and more everyday.  My biggest fear and deepest prayer is that I can be the best mom for her needs.


"Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it."
Proverbs 22:6

  1. Lauren if you (as I know you will) let God help you through the goods and bad. You are a great mom already you are telling her about Jesus and are raising her up together with a husband and dad that love you both and love God too. Patton and Kirby are very blessed.
