lady bug and the boog bear

Tonight my baby girls are "camping out" on the floor of their room.

It amazes me how quickly they grow.

And how, despite their ten-year difference (one 2, the other 12) they are both my little babies. So sweet their sleeping faces are.

To the ones whose journey has just begun:

Every child born into the world is a new thought of God, an ever-fresh and radiant possibility.
Kate Douglas Wiggin

Every child begins the world again...
Henry David Thoreau
Take care, my friend. Enjoy your beautiful and precious little one.
