They grow up too quickly, hard to believe I will have a 4 year old soon! Inspired by the book LET ME HOLD YOU LONGER and my overly-active Roth sentimental gene I have decided to try to jot down things I want to remember from time to time. Because someday Ev won't come out of her bed repeatedly asking for hippo hugs & butterfly kisses and Lil won't tell me that she "don't can't hear it" when the music is quiet and I want to remember:
How Lily prays..."Jesus, thank you Fader for our sins..." (her theology needs some work)
How Lily cuts her hair (maybe I do want to forget) and puts everything in her mouth
How Evie "cuts coupons" and tells me what is free and on sale.
How Evie doesn't want to wear leggings, anything that is "scratchy" or has "belts", and the list goes on...
How they LOVE animals and people and the little things. They soak up everything.
How Ev is so easily broken and how anything entrusted to Lily is also.
How I found them when I went in to check on them tonight; Evie curled up in a ball with no covers and Lily perpendicular to the bed with both legs through one leghole in her pajamas.
