This past year has been amazing...seriously, I love being part of their family!! I met Parker when she was just a few weeks old, and started keeping her when she turned 6 weeks old. Those first few months we spent our days taking walks, suffering through tummy time and enjoying endless cuddles! Parker is one of the happiest babies I know, from the very start she seemed to always go with the flow. I mean, don't get me wrong...she has her moments. Honestly, which of us don't have our moments? It has been so neat to watch the progression from a little baby to a toddler who can walk, has a great vocabulary, and knows what she wants. I am always amazed at what Parker picks up just by watching. She has the cutest expressions and will often unexpectedly blow you a kiss. That never ceases to make my day. Sometimes Jason gets a little tired of hearing "Guess what Parker did today....I just love that little girl!!". But trust me, he loves her ALMOST as much as I do. The Lord has taught me so much through this little girl. Mostly about patience in the hardest moments. I have learned that keeping a neutral, soft tone goes so much further than letting Parker sense my frustration when she is screaming. I feel privileged that Parker's mommy and daddy have allowed me to have part in their little girls life. Thanks Adam and Stephannie, you guys have a precious little "love bug".
P.S. Yes, Jason does have shorts on in the photo!
