So grown up at 18 months!


Our baby is a year and a half already! She is making great strides physically and cognitively.

Today is Easter, and we had an Easter egg hunt with the girls in the living room, dining room and kitchen of the house. Yesterday, Sarah had taken the girls to another egg hunt at a park near our house, and Natalie was more interested in eating her snack than finding eggs. But today she understood what she had to do and was delighted to find a lot of eggs (with Daddy's help). In one of the eggs Sarah and I had put a couple of clothing items for a very small plastic doll of Lexi's. This was the best prize for Natalie. She squealed with delight several times. The simple pleasures of a child. That's what is making Natalie a delight at this age.

We need to capture that delight with the ordinary as our lives have so much ordinary. Blessings to you all.
