Ode to Chloe


I love, love, love this girl.

Who new she would rock my world for the better.

She is my first born!

Here are just a few things I adore...

** Her eyes! They are the color of water with a stripe of brown to keep her grounded.

** Her smile is kind and full of fun.

** Her dance moves! I love that she thinks the robot is cool!

** Her style! When did she wake up Japanese? I wish I could wear all my faves together and pull it off!

** The way she takes care of her brother. There is nothing better for me than to spy her giving him a hug and making him feel important.

** Her eagerness to help around the house. Right now it's called being a good helper in a few years it will be called chores. But she has fun so I won't spoil it for her.

** She loves to ride bikes or take walks with the whole family.

** Her desire to say the prayer. She has food prayer down pat and is moving on to family prayer. Only she likes to combine the two so when we are really hungry Declan says it!

These are just a few things I can think of off the top of my head. She is my favorite little gal who has no idea how much better she makes her two parents.

Some words about nothing

Not much has been happening around here. I'm sure the kids said some funny things but I don't blog when they are around because I get carried away. And I get extremely lazy at ten o'clock at night. So the kids are back at school and me likey!

The weather is so beautiful here and we have been eating outside every night. Last night it was so chilly but the kids insisted on eating outdoors with blankets and hot chocolate. I have to admit, that was pretty fun.

Brian and I went to a Halloween party on Friday dressed as a nun and a rabbi. Great combo I thought. Besides, if you can't be sac religious with your friends then who can you. I have never laughed so hard at a party before this one, and this group of friends are always laughing. I almost puked from the scooter story. That was classic and Jimmy is going to have to dig deep to top that story next time.

Brian and I are stumped. We want to move but to where is the question. This little house has run it's course and there are no kids on our street to play with. The primary is small and achievement days are around the corner for Chloe and she needs a group!!! Do you like your neighborhood? Please sell me on it!
