Time to brag

I feel like a lot of the time I am complaining, rather than bragging about my kids. Although blogging is definitely a great place to blow some steam off. I must say that for the most part, we have really good children. Ruby can be way too sensitive and Abby can be very stubborn, but all-in-all... they really are the best. Last week when I picked up Ruby from school, her regular teacher was on vacation. So, the 4-5 year old teacher was helping out. She said she had a really rough day with the 3 years olds and they tested her all day. However, she said that Ruby was so sweet and helpful. She was kind and a good listener. The best part was that she said it in front of Ruby. Of coarse, Ruby was shy about it. I was so proud of her. She really is a good girl and it is nice to hear someone else say it. Abby is just about the silliest little girl I know. She is starting to talk more and more and simply just loves to be loved... just not by everyone. She is very stingy with her love and sometimes is way more of a mommy's girl than Ruby has ever been. She loves to have fun and she loves a new adventure. She seems like she has grown in so many ways since she turned two. She still lacks "sand etiquette"... aka throwing sand, and still loves to run off, but she takes her time-outs like a champ and seems like she "gets it"... at least for the time being. Together, with Anthony, my life is really blessed. I am so excited to marry Anthony and I love him so much and I am so grateful... especially because he puts up with my flaws. XOXO
