Who could ask for more?

As the year nears an end and I have tried to take time to reflect on the past year, I realized that the blessing far surpass the trials. As we thought that we might lose the newest member of our extended family(Baby Chase) And then not only to have him come home but start to grow by leaps and bounds. Then Grandpa got married to Grandma Alice after two years of lonliness since Grandma passed. We have experienced many ups and downs with our business and yet somehow life seems to move forward and we are able to always put milk in our cups and food on the table. Our little baby is no longer so little and she gets into everything. No she is not walking yet but for some reason I am ok with this. She is 3 1/2 months slower than the other kids and she has no intention of walking anytime soon either. She knows that Mommy will pick her up and lug her around if she gives the slightest wimper. She tries so hard to be as big as sister and brother and love them so much. The two older kids are in Preschool three times a week. They each love their teachers so much and each one fits them so well. Hunter has grown up to be the littlest man. He has the sweetest demeanor and the most sensitive personality. He is quite talented with a basketball and even at the age of 3 he rarely misses a shot. He even has form when he shoots a basket. He is so loving with his sisters and is always willing to give them compliments and Kenna will surely fish for them if they are not offered too. MaKenna can almost count to 100 all by herself and she is getting better at letter and number recognition. We cut her hair this year and ever since the cut she couldn't get more girlish if she tried. She has to put her "lapstick" or lipstick on every morning before she even considers leaving the house. What a little diva. Brian has stayed busy trying to make ends meet with our business. He is a great dad and never fails to keep his priorities in check. He is wonderful Dad and husband. He does things to help out that most men would never dream of doing. Thanks for being there for me too honey. I just can't wrap myself around the thought of how big this little family of mine is getting. We are so blessed to have each other forever. May the next year be just as great as this one. With health, strength and love. Happy Holidays!
