My little girl....

I have been reading my posts and I have said

so many things about the boys that I feel as if I

have neglected myprecious little girl. She calls herself

the princess, the boys call her the beast. She may only

be 3 but her PMS modes are already working.

She is a princess of drama. Everything

turns into a dramatic experience with her.

Sometimes her actions are just like her

Aunt Nennie in Fl! Then other times Sean

says she is just like her Auntie Caitlin in NY.

All we know is that she is a

promise from God fulfilled.

You see in January of 2003 Sean and I were

praying aboutwhether we would have any more kids.

We were happy with just the two boys. I will be honest

we did want a little girl but what we wanted more was

God's will for our lives. So we started praying for an

answer. It was during a revival service we were having

at our church that God showed me a pictured of

Sean holdinga baby girl and I distictly

heard her name...Sara. It reminded me of

another time right after loosing our first born son,

SeanPatrick, of a vision of ourfuture family.

Of Sean playing horsey with 3 boys and I

was holding a little girl all arounda

Christmas tree. That dream came true

just a year later.

So when we found out I was pregnant I just

knew we had a girl. At that time I never dreamed

that there would be two babies growing inside

of me. I should have known though, I had numerous

dreams of having two babies aeach time a boy

and a girl. When I would look at pregnancy books

I always looked at books for multiples.The whole 4

months before we had the ultra sound God was

trying to show me to prepare me and

I didn't listen. I guess that is why I laughed

when the ultra sound tech said,

"How do you feel about twins?"

Here she is sunning herself under the lights

in the NICU at Sarasota Memorial Hospital

We should have known that she would be so

head strong!She was that way in the womb, refused

to turn aroundand came bottom first - she was so

anxious to come that she practically pushed Eli out.

Well maybe that is not exactly what happened

but they were born 7 weeks and 5 days too early.

Mommy holds Sara for 1st time, all 3 1/2 lbs of her!

Sara is a bright, confident, amazing little girl

that loves her brothers, animals, ponies

and dollies. She loves to play in the mud

while wearingher prettiest dress and

riding her bike with the boys.

She likes to aggrivate her brothers

just as much as she likes playing with them.

She brings us all joy and without her our family

would not be complete.
