raspberries and oatmeal

Dear Girls,
You two are so very sweet most mornings, it almost breaks my heart! This morning when it was already 7:30 and I had to go into your room and turn on the light to wake Avery up so she didn't miss the bus, instead of being bleary-eyed and crabby like anyone else would be when so rudely-awoken, you both bounced out of bed smiling and sweet! There were lots of hugs and hand-squeezes and "I had a great nap!"'s and "I love you, mom!"'s and I loved every short second of it. With your halos of curly hair and sleepy eyes you two are the world's most beautiful angels. We had oatmeal and raspberries and milk for breakfast together and you both giggled as you ate.
I love watching your relationship develop! More every day you two play together- especially house. You each take turns being Mom and Baby- it's the sweetest thing ever! Especially to a pregnant mama who looks on as the world's best big sisters practice helping and caring for baby.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, thank you for making my day. And it's only 8am.

Mom
