Our youngest can do so many things these days! (Including using 'the potty' - although, I don't count them 'potty trained' until they can do the whole thing by themselves.) There are times I wish she would stay little for a bit longer. She's doing a pretty good job - considering she's small for her age. But, her development seems to be right on target. (She might even learn to read 'early' - not child
genius - just earlier than the rest of our kids. She already knows the sounds of many letters.) Anyway...something I love about her is how she holds my hand. It reminds me of infants and how they take all of their tiny fingers and hold on tight to one finger of the bigger person. Rachel does the same. When she grabs my hand - she'll take all of her little fingers and wrap them around my pinky. It's often a reminder to me that she's still my baby.

She's getting so big! And I can't believe how much she looks like Megan!
She did the same thing to me at the temple open house! It was so cute! With her and Megan holding onto me, I would have done anything for them at that moment. I am such a sucker. It was great to see you at the reunion too. Too bad we now live across the country and won't get that chance for a while. Love you.
