Testing..123

I have always believed I have large amounts of patience. Not never ending mind you, just more than your average. I am finding that the greatest test to my patience is my one year old. She's wonderful, funny, adorable, loving, full of life and energy and the cutest ever. But she's also one, into everything repeatedly and without the reasoning skills needed to explain why she shouldn't.......There's nothing as humbling as having a child, in so many different ways.

Looking forward to the "terrible two's".....

I love two year olds, love how their personality and sense of humor develop, how they will challenge you with what they want and love how they surprise you all the time with what they can do. Love the moments of affection that they willingly give out....sigh

I am really enjoying this age. I've been getting so much loving lately. I love watching her interact with people and things and just figure things out. Her developement is so quick, she amazes me on a daily basis. In the midst of a bad day I can look at her and feel that I'm doing something right!! I guess it's just that some days feel so hard. Your perception of everything, including yourself, changes when you become a parent. I'm going to have to accept the fact that I may never "figure things out".

Don't tell me that you may never figure things out that means I totally won't be able to!! AHHHHH!! Things to look forward to. I can't wait - honestly. Remind me I said that when he's two.
I love the way Payton interacts right now. She is so fun. When I was holding her in church she was sitting there and then with a sigh she threw her head against my chest and just layed there. She is such a precious gift. The way her eyes light up with excitement. The mischievious little giggle she gives. That's little miss. I could understand how trying and testing it could be though. Kisses and hugs. Which also reminds me how much I love when she gives kisses!! That little girl is very affectionate. hehehe. you wanted a cuddly baby.
