6 Months!






Oh, this baby! She is 6 months old today. I can't believe how fast 6 months has gone by. She slipped quietly and gently into our home, our family, our lives, and it was as if she was always here almost instantly. She is the sweetest little person. She loves everyone she meets, she loves to laugh and be jolly. She is a precious, pure, and gentle soul. We all love her so. Oh, do we ever.

She is not  Mama's girl like her sister was, she is happy to spend time with anyone. She practically leaps from my arms when her Daddy reaches for her, she talks to anybody who looks at her and is happy cuddled in their arms. But her sun rises and sets with her sister. Oh, how she worships and adores Penelope. Watching her every move, laughing when she laughs and crying when she cries.

The next 6 months will most likely bring tastes of new foods, crawling, first steps, first teeth, first words - although that last one, I don't know. Today Pen opened her much read copy of Madeline to read to Violet and Vi said in a very excited voice "La Line!" Which sounded to both Pen and me very much like Madeline.

The last 6 months has not been without it's challenges, but we are all so very happy to know and love this delightful little girl. This wonderful, tiny person. She gladdens each of our hearts daily. Thank you, thank you for being here in our lives little Violet, I can't wait to watch you learn and grow for the next 6 months, and for the rest of my life, for that matter. Just not TOO fast, o.k.?
