It's OK Mommy

it has become really hard for finley to take her naps in the living room while the girls are playing. they are usually chasing each other squealing, playing follow the leader or jumping. anyone who has ever visited our house knows that they have no idea what their inside voice is.

so, today, i thought i would try something new and put finley in the crib upstairs. well, that lasted all of about 30 seconds until she woke up and realized that she was alone. tears started and poured for about 30 minutes before i finally gave in and went and picked her up. before i went upstairs to get her, i was playing with the girls and just put my head in my hands while i was listening to her cry. it was literally breaking my heart to hear her. preslee quickly said, "what's wrong mommy, are you ok?" i assured her that i was and was just sad because i wanted finley to take a nap and stop crying and she wouldn't. she patted me on the back and said, "don't worry about baby finley mommy, she's ok, she's just a little thing."

thank you God for the sweetest most tender hearted little girls that i have ever known. give drew and i guidance everyday as we teach them how to become loving, caring adults.
