Bonus Kids
It's been a little tough to write lately. I guess I've been busy. Life has been full lately. But more than that I've been in my life rather than observing my life and documenting it regularly. I just don't want to stop living. I've been fully in it. That's a good thing. I love Joel. He is everything to me. I love my new girls too.
Genevieve, Gigi, is 10. She just had her birthday. Her and Erin are two peas in a pod. They have their own way about them. They're both slightly nerdy. They get caught up in their own world. They truly enjoy one another. And rarely to they get on each others nerves. Even if they did annoy one another I don't think they would fight out load. It's their way. Gigi loves to read A LOT. The girl devours books. She's reading The City of Ember series and starting Harry Potter. She doesn't talk much about feelings though I have at times encouraged her to. Simple things first. She seems to be doing well with everything and has developed some nice coping methods which tend to keep her happy and even. She is a sweet girl still though I can almost see the girl leaving both her AND Erin.
Rachel is growing up VERY fast. ugh. This is a typical look from her.
Sometimes she's sweet as can be and other times she's the devil's spawn. She seems to be a normal, well adjusted almost teen-ager. She'll be 13 in 2 1/2 months.
Josephine, Josie, is 6 years old. She is going into 2nd grade. She is a sweet cuddle muffin. She loves to snuggle. She's very artistic and dramatic. She freely loves me as I do her.
Celia is going to kindergarten next year. Her last day of preschool she fell at school and needed to go to the emergency room for stitches. Crazy kid. She is so much fun.
Joel and his girls have left for their much anticipated cross country trip. I miss them dearly. But I am so glad they have this time with one another. My girls are at their father's this weekend, though, I'm looking forward to spending time with just my girls next week.
