Growing Up

When I looked at this picture I took of Savannah today, I felt so surprised by how grown up she suddenly seems.

She really is such a fun girl & I am getting a kick out of the conversations we now share.

She talks about the future a lot, especially about where she's going to live (close to us, she says, because she "doesn't even know how to get to the airport"!).

She gives us tips on parenting ("If you want Will to stop eating junk, you just have to trick him. Just tell him the healthy things are treats!")

And she's so generous with her love & praise ("Mom & Dad, I love you so much, even when you make mistakes & even when we're on vacation & even all the days.)

We're so blessed to have Savannah in our family.
