Three years ago today at this exact time I was sitting outside the pool on Lowell thinking I wasn’t in labor… And then MJ realized I was and off to the hospital I went and then my little loves arrived. I can’t believe they are three. “I not a BABY!” I am reminded all the time.
They are so full of life and high spirits and creativity and so smart and fabulous in every way. They are the perfect daughters. I love them so much. I love the sense of humor in each, I love Scottie’s performances, Nelly’s ease, their kisses, the kindnesses, the love of lollipops and lipsticks, the determination and perseverance, the generosity and forgiveness, their ability and so many things.
Saturday we had their Cinderella-Mermaid-Horse-Bunny party in the backyard which they loved. They were such great hostesses and make cupcakes for their friends and were excited to give out goodie bags with toy ponies, stickers, tiaras, cowboy hats and lollipops. Scottie was looking forward to have real horses live in our back yard and Nelly to having a live mermaid but they were totally fine when it was just a visiting pony, three bunnies, chicks and ducks. Their friends were all so nice and came and played and brought then such generous gifts.
The girls listed for me what was going to happen the day of the party “First pet bunny, then ride pony, then facepaint, then eat cupcakes.”
Today they came into my room for gifts when they woke up and got princess goggles, hello kitty tennis rackets and pink scooters (in addition to the Cinderella and mermaid costumes and accessories and dolls and toy make up we have them Saturday).
I hope they Are having a happy birthday.
