Melt my heart moments

*That little girl and her love for shoes.  This season, those boots specifically.  She wears them ALL.THE.TIME (As can be seen in the picture!)

*The way her little hand was sticking out the window yesterday on our drive home from the store.  She doesn't get to sit by the window all that much and she was loving the feel of the wind through her fingers.  It IS the little things!  The small hand slowly waving the wind.  The sheer look of joy on her face... Oh, I don't ever want to forget!

**My "Hooper-hass" (super fast) boy!

**The way he pummeled me yesterday, grabbed my neck as hard as he could and said:  "I hove you, Mom!"  And when I said "Oh, buddy, I love you too", he squeezed harder and replied:  "I hove you many much, Mama!"

**The way he devoured his spaghetti last night and between mouthfuls of pasta exclaimed:  "Mama!  You cook the best pahtah eveh!"  How does even come up with these things?  I love him so much!

***This little munchkin.  The grunts she makes and the way she looks at us as if she just communicated oh so clearly and we should totally know what she meant.

***Her singing faces.  How she loves to sing and dance.

****How he loves to take care of Victoria.

****How he is getting into reading now! (like -whole books-)

****How he has finally conquered some night time issues.

::: How this girl carries our hearts so diligently.

::: How she has devoted herself to take care of Red these days.

::: How she belts out made up songs when she washes the dishes!  What a gift her voice is to our every day life!

::::  This big girl.  How she asks questions about life and processes the answers we give her.

::::  How she sends me pictures like these when I need to step out and leave her in charge.  How is she growing up so quickly?!

Seriously!  How did I get so blessed?!
