Eisley Rue

By




Tomorrow this sweet baby of mine turns 3! Can't believe my little girl is a three year old! She is also very excited to tell anyone and everyone that she is going to be three. She, like Kaybree has done in the past, is using this new definition of herself as a weapon. Whenever she is excited about doing something or angry about not being able to do something "I'm gonna be three!" is her defense.

This year Eisley has asked for a Barbie and a dollhouse for that Barbie. Dollhouse probably isn't happening. Sorry kid, no space in your bedroom for a big Barbie house and definitely not two of them (since these girls can't share anything).

I plan to celebrate by taking her to Enchanted Island at Encanto Park tomorrow morning with her cousins and Grandma Duck. Should be a good time. Then later that night she is going to Brittany's house (we've got an adults only dinner with family that night since Grandpa's funeral is Saturday) which I think she will be very excited about. When I asked her who she wanted to celebrate her birthday with she said "Everyone!"

My little Eisley Rue is the best. I say that because she often says that to me and melts my heart. There is nothing better than hearing "Mommy, you the best." in her sweet little baby voice. She still gives the best hugs of anyone I know and is a skilled snuggler too. She often demands that I come sit down her or lay with her, whatever the case may be and even though 80% of the time I'm in the middle of doing something that cannot wait--it is not possible to say no to her.

She laughs like a maniac and has countless facial expressions and silly voices she uses. She loves dogs and is constantly chasing them to give them hugs or laughing as she sneaks them food under the table.

Her favorite toys right now are her baby doll (she sleeps with it every night) and Kaybree's Jasmine Barbie. She's currently obsessed with the movie Incredibles and wants to watch it every day on repeat all day long. Her favorite super powers are the stretching the mom in the movie can do.

I love this sweet baby of mine. So glad she lets me shower her with kisses and hugs and 80% of the time she's easy going and happy and loves to point out when she's being good. Love you, Eisley Rue!

My biggest challenge

I’m a writer by trade. I’ve always wanted to be a writer. I love to put my feelings into words. Yet, in the last month, I’ve been having a very difficult time vocalizing what’s happening in my life. It’s not because it’s been sad or difficult or anything like that. It’s mostly because there is someone new in my life who I care very deeply for who I feel this deep need to protect. I want to protect his identity, his story, his life. I don’t want to overstep any boundaries or crush any trust. I recognize the life he has lived has not been easy and so I tread lightly on this relationship we’ve built. But honestly—it’s a fantastic relationship. He’s an amazing kid. I’ve been asked to write a blog post for an organization that helps recruit foster parents about the first few weeks of being a foster parent. I’m having difficulty deciding what to write. I feel like anything I write about my case probably won’t apply to their case so it’s not very helpful. I keep writing drafts and then...

Kaybree is 8! Why does time go by so quickly? Even Kaybree thinks it went by too fast. Kaybree, you are amazing. You are a natural caretaker to your sisters. They don't always appreciate it but I do. You know just what to do to make Aspen laugh and you have no problem carrying her around. You never complain when she steals your snacks or makes a mess of whatever you were playing with. Just this morning I was sitting outside with Aspen and you came out with a piece of fruit leather you were eating for breakfast. As soon as Aspen saw you she got a huge grin and reached her hand out for your food and without a word, you gave it to her. You love dressing up and doing your hair. You've been letting it grow out for almost a year now and it's half way down your back, bright blonde and carefully brushed every day by you. Your room is spotless 90% of the time, with the exception of when you let Eisley or Aspen play in there and then you stay up all night cleaning it. You a...

"So I've got a friend, who I met at Frys. He's an older guy. He's got a car he wants to give me and soon he's starting a business so when I'm 18 and a half or 19 I think I'm going to move out and move in with him and work for him." "Doing what?" "I don't really know but he's going to have this business." "OK. Well, good luck with that. Get it in writing and get a title for the car." I walked away just shaking my head. Silently I thought "At least he didn't tell me he's going to become a rapper. He might as well though... A couple hours later I talked with him again. "OK, so I've been texting him and finding out more about this job." "OK." "So he's going to be a rapper. And he says we'll find something for me to do, something I'm good at. Something that will make me $1,000 a day and I can probably start doing it from home--maybe finding new beats online....
