I *heart* them.

This weekend was a little crazy.  Zoe has been sick with a cold.  Normally that's not too bad, but when she sleeps she gets this cough.  At night it's best if we sleep in our recliner so she's propped up.  It's not terrible, but it's also not ideal.  She gets some really good sleep, which is the only thing that will help her feel better.

D & E came this weekend for a visit.  D had her first slumber party at her friend's house.  What's even cooler about this slumber party is that it's her best friend who moved away at the start of the school year.  In a weird twist, she moved a block away from us.  I can see many weekends where D wants to hang out with her friend rather than us.  N's a little hesitant about it, but I'm all for it.  It seems like in the last few months D has gone from girl to tween and it's actually been a really smooth transition.  So far! 

What made this weekend a little crazy was that we had a wedding reception on Saturday.  Not just one we attended, but one we helped put on.  N was a valet, I was the photographer (those poor people) and we had all three girls there for 6 hours.  D snuck out to her slumber party, but Zoe and E were stuck!  I will tell you, I couldn't be more proud of our girls.  They handled it like professional wedding reception guests!  There was no whining.  There was no "how much longer!"  They just seemed to have fun.

If you have more than one child you know that getting all your kiddos on the same page, with no whining, no complaining and just being able to go with the flow is a miracle that only God can give you.  I couldn't be more blessed by those girls.  They really are amazing.  I'm not even a little biased!
