Maybe a little to Honest!

For the past month and a half I have been working out with my sister in laws. My brother in law Spencer has been putting us through what we like to call NFL Boot camp. Yeah! I don't think my booty, arms, legs, stomach has ever burned so bad in my entire life. He is kicking our butts into shape. My problem area I would say is my booty but it is looking so much better. I have had a lot of compliments on how I look and I am happy with with how I look also.

Well, there is nothing like a child to humble you. As I have said before Kylie is my brutally honest child. Don't ever ask her opinion unless you REALLY want to hear it. This particular day I had to hear her opinion without even posing a question. I was walking into my bathroom with her following behind me. Here is our conversation:

Kylie: Are you going to workout?
Me: Yes.
Kylie: Well your butt jiggles.
Me: ( Standing with my mouth open)
Kylie: You need to make your butt smaller.
Me: Really, thanks Kylie.
Kylie: ( smile on her face)

If that's not more motivation I don't know what is.
I don't think Kylie was trying to be mean, but she seems to notice any flaws. And I would have to say that my butt is not that BIG but, maybe it does jiggle a bit :)

Dear Brookie


Brookie,
What a blessing you are to our family. We all love you so very much. You are such a fun little girl and we are starting to see your fun personality. I love to stare into your big blue eyes. You always have a big smile on your face with your tongue sticking out. It is fun to hear you say Dada, though I wish at least one of my kids would say Mama first. I love that you are such a daddy's girl and it is so cute to watch you and him together.
I hope you will always know what a ray of sunshine you are for our family especially after the loss of your sister Kamber. I hope you always know how much Kamber loved you. She loved to play with you and hold you. She would show off for you to make you smile. You use to watch her so closely and I know that you are good friends and will be even though she is not here.
Remember we all love you very much and we are so happy to have you!

Love,
Mommy

Dear Kylie


Kylie,
I just want you to know how much I love you! I am so glad to have you as a daughter. You always bring a smile to my face. I love your personality because you always know how to make me laugh. I love how honest you are even when it is some thing I don't want to hear. You are a great sister and I know that your sisters love you.

You are such a sweet girl and you know how to make someone feel included no matter who they are. You have such a sweet spirit about you and a beautiful glow in your eyes. You are such a smart girl and I sometimes think you are so smart for your own good.

I love that you always give out hugs and kisses, they are my favorite! I hope you never stop. Thanks for being such a sweet girl and know that I will always love you!

Love,
Mommy
