This gorgeous girl is my oldest, C. I happen to think she's pretty clever. Sometimes too clever for her own britches, if you ask me. She doesn't hesitate to jump into situations where a bit of caution would be good, and yet is afraid of the strangest things. Strange to me that is. I imagine to a four-year old, it's quite normal. She's finishing her first year of preschool, which has been a complete success. She loves to sing, dance, and draw. She's quite extreme in every aspect - she's either full throttle or complete stop. There is no medium, ever. Kind of like her mum. :-)
This little girl is my middle child, P. On her own, she's very reserved, quiet, and thoughtful. When her big sister is around, she is fearless, extremely vocal, and vivacious. She is very fair-minded, and precise. If something is just the slightest bit off, she will not only see it, but she will try and fix it. She loves to eat, and would eat all day if I'd just leave the pantry door open. She also has a cheeky, mischievous laugh that makes me smile. Every. Single. Time.
And this one is my little miss, M. Loves her food, just like her momma. Refuses to do anything even remotely like either of her big sisters did, and also refuses to fit into any kind of a routine or schedule. She came into the world on her own terms, and continues to hold to that. I adore her though, and wonder what's going on behind that mysterious expression?
The latest addition to our household is A. The lone boy to balance out all the womenfolk. He and his dad can go hang out in the shed together when the estrogen gets to be too much. :) I'll be posting a photo soon, as soon as I can work out how to do it without re-writing this entire page.

L has asked me not to post photos of him, so I won't. I can write about him though! He is fair-minded, hard-working, very physically active (most days he walks or bikes the 4k to work), and very family-oriented. He is also extremely focused, and when he is fixated on a goal or a task, it is extremely hard to divert his attention from it. He is also a really hands-on dad, and makes a mean fry-up for breakfast. And he's a very good gift giver. I'm very blessed to have him!
