I’m not sure it’s possible, but somehow in the blink of an eye, my little Sweet Pea Lucia turned three …. how is that even REMOTELY possible? {slow down time, please} I still remember the SECOND she was placed in my arms in the hospital for the first time. I was SO happy to have another girl! And she is so different than all her sisters …. sweet and sassy, definitely – or perhaps that’s just the terrible twos with a few months extension … ๐
One of my favorite times with Lucia is Friday nights. The bigger girls go to the Awana program here in town, Lovelyn sleeps (or at least is supposed to sleep) and Lucia and I get to have mommy-Lucia time. We watch movies together and cuddle up in bed together. It’s fantastic. Having a big family means you have to find that time to spend one on one and it’s not always easy. I feel guilty leaving one girl out if I take another with me on a date, often times they want to do things together and not be separated or sometimes, it’s just not feasible to spend a lot of one on one time if it’s been a busy week. It’s something I want to work on this yearย – having one on one time with each girl. All to myself.
We celebrated Lucia’s third birthday with a Tinkerbell party …. it was SO much fun (if you live in the Orangeville/Geulph/Waterloo area, you MUST check out Kricket n’ Crew – she is amazing as Tinkerbell!!)
The girls made Pixie Dust ….
The girls were enthralled!
Lucia loved her fairy wings … ๐
Happy birthday, Lucia! My life would not be complete without you!! xo
