When I look at my daughter, I just…
Smile. Really. Big.
She is SO…Mae. Just crazy, lovable, full-of-spunk-and-life, soaking-up-the-simple-but-lovely, WONDERFUL Mae.
I have no doubt in my mind whatsoever that God gave us the sweetheart He did because He knew exactly what our family needed. She is more than a beam of sunshine…she IS the sunshine!
And living life with her is all kinds of complete JOY. From the morning greetings through the monitor that announce to the household that she is, indeed, awake and ready to greet the day…to adventures on slides at the park…to splish-splash baths in the middle of the day thanks to an unexpected mac ‘n cheese shampoo…to the nighttime cuddles when closeness is all either of us want.
Oh, I love her so much. SO. MUCH.
Here are some pictures…just life. Living it with people we love.
Oh, what beauty this life is.
The proper way to push a stroller…wearing daddy’s work gloves, of course!
One of her very, very favorite activities! “Ride, ride, ride!”
Stopping to smell the flowers.
Of course, no outing is complete without a stop to visit our favorite friends across the street and their sweet doggie, “Sissy”.
Holding hands while we cross the street…actually, looking back to say one more goodbye to our friends!
Time for a quick picture with mommy at the Easter egg hunt. Too fun! 
A visit from Aunt Kris after church on Easter. (Maybe we should have taken the picture before we let her eat crackers!) Ooops! Oh, well, I still love her smile…she looks too grown up. 😉
To say she loves “swimming” is an understatement. I can hardly wait to see her joy when she sees what’s going to show up in her backyard this summer! 😉
Good times!
And, of course, swimming is never complete until we splash mommy really, really good! So fun.
And even if I did post this a few days ago, it’s worthy of a repeat ’cause I think we’re adorable. Yep. I do. 😀
