Looking back from 2-07 thru 12-08


I wanted to put this together because it has been such an amazing experience to watch Keena and Quin grow together. There is just so much to learn...from sharing to apologizing. I already see Quin looking up to his big sister. He looks to her to see what to do and how to do things. Keena is trying to take control and be the mommy. Sometimes she tells me, " I can handle it mom." I remind her that diciplining her brother is only for mom to do. Sometimes she'll just say, " thanks mom for taking care of that." Keena is such a helper to him. When he falls, she is right there to pick him up and dust him off. She can't wait to play with him in the morning. I think my favorite line of Keenas is, "brother, do you want to come play with me"? Quin says, "yeah." They both go running down the hall to toys and play and play. I love how they forgive each other after battle. Within literally 2 seconds they are back to cracking up and playing.

I believe this slide show will remind them how much they need and love each other...just in case they forget. I want them to live true connectedness, whether it be through their family or friends. My kids inspire me. I think they teach me as much as I teach them. Sometime I forget how amazing my role is in their lives. How it's not enough for me to talk the talk, but I need to be what I expect of them. Life is such an amazing adventure of growth.
