This is my "snapshot scrapbook" of our daily doings for my children and family. I hope to preserve the "everyday" for my children and for us so that we can always read it and remember.

Miss Independent

...sort of. So Little Miss Sullivan has been doing really well playing by herself lately, in our den, in her crib, at the table, in the car seat, babbling and ordering her toys around, asking them questions (Like, "pipi? No. popo? No. {Asking if they need to use the bathroom!} Yum,yum. {feeding them}) and trying to give them food or drink. It is really endearing and a joy to watch and I've been eager to capture it on film. This is challenging, however, as she is so eager to watch the video, she won't allow me to actually take it. But, yesterday I found a chance to sneak a video while I was making dinner. Amazingly, she had been "having a tea party" for almost 20 minutes and I snuck in to catch what you see here. This is clearly not Hollywood footage, nor exciting, but to those who know and love Sullivan, you may have the patience to enjoy this. In all of our moments of frustration these days, these precious moments help me focus on her "Sullivan-ness", her pure, innocent and beautiful personhood. I hope that this finds you all well.

Absolutely precious! So sweet...and so much nicer than smashing cars into one another, which is the common theme at our house. Imagine Sullivan and her little sister doing this together someday :)

Catie:
That is a great video! Sullivan is surely a big girl now, and seems to know how to entertain. Yes, this is truly precious and I enjoyed it very much. My Christian love go to you, Lee and "Sully". Enjoy this weekend and the week ahead. Praise the Lord for your happy family.
