Yesterday morning, we were getting ready for church and Sammy was hiccuping a lot. She said, "Mommy, I have the hiccups and a stomachache so I think I have a HICCACHE." Having a sweet seven year old girl around the house is so much fun. She is the perfect ending to our family. She is so sweet and fun and FUNNY. I love seeing the world through her eyes. I wish I could freeze time. I'm loving my kids ages (except for the occasional hormonal teenage drama from Hailey-wait, did I say OCCASIONAL???) Last night we all went on a bike ride around the lake after dinner and it was so much to watch all of my kids and how full of life they all are. Matt and I really got lucky to be sent such sweet, loving, fun children to raise. I admit, I don't feel that way EVERY moment of EVERY day, but most days I do. I always thought I would miss having a baby around the house, but the thing I didn't realize is they are all still my babies. It is so wonderful to watch them all grow into their personalities and develop their talents and interests. I love my job!
