If you know me, you know I am hairstyle-challenged.  I never do anything different or exciting to my hair.  Some days I just want to wear a baseball cap and forget about it.  So having 3 daughters whose hair needs to be styled may be God's little joke on me.    I'm thankful Esther always wants her hair down since it has finally grown out from the big CHOP from 2 years ago.  However she has discovered curls and wants them every day.  We tried it once and she loved it.  So I twisted her hair up again tonight after her shower to sleep on for church tomorrow.  Her bedtime prayer went something like this, "Dear Jesus, please help Mr. James and Claire's dad to get home safely from Iraq and help me to have really really curly hair tomorrow.  Amen"  What do you say to that?

I am so thankful for my spunky and ENERGETIC little girl!  I love that she can paint toenails and play in the dirt, rock her babies and jump off the fort to the trampoline (oops, did she really do that?).  She is A LOT of personality packaged in one adorable little girl!!

I love that my sister and I were raised to be able to seamlessly go from the basketball court to the grand piano, from dresses and heels to forts and climbing trees.

E will love the freedom and challenges she meets with such skills!

I love her! We are about to have two girls and just getting one set of pigtails up each morning is challenging. I'll pray for you. :-)
