"The fundamental mission of motherhood now is the same as it always was: to nurture, protect, and instruct children, to create a home environment that enables them to learn and grow, to help them develop a heart for God and his purposes, and to send them out into the world prepared to live both fully and meaningfully."

-Sally Clarkson from the Mission of Motherhood

My heart

...belongs to this little girl.

Thanks to Shannon M. for taking these priceless shots of AM while here on the mini shower visit. I am so grateful for these! Especially because in my busy "post baby" days/nights, I'm not taking near as many pictures to document our time. Life's alot busier with two! :)
Oh, AnnMarie! I just don't want to forget what you were like at this age! Absolutely darling to me. Please don't grow up! Sometimes I just want to put you in a time capsule.





So much personality in such a little body. :)
Oh what am I in for in about 13 years?
