Ells Lately

As you know the girl loves her crown. Even wears it while she sleeps. 

Every night we just laugh at the this girl. Sometimes a crown or headband. Others a stocking hat? Tonite she is laying on the floor next to her bed (why?) and enjoying some tunes with her new cd player about 2 inches from her ears. 

She loves to tease her dad. Like cheering for the hawkeyes. She is a true cyclone at heart though. She always joking and has the best listening ears.

In this picture, she is walking her dolls. She told me that they have been sick with headaches and God told her to take them on a walk for ten laps. This girl has been asking a ton of questions lately. She has a heart for God like no other. She just seems to get things. She has been asking a lot about some of her grandpas that are up in heaven. And has a ton of questions about Jesus and God. 

She told me on the way home from gymnastics the other day that she really didn't need any presents because she already had the greatest gift.  Jesus. 

Wowzers. If that doesn't just make you tear up. My heart rejoiced at the sound. She is getting it. I am doing something right. Or at least staying out of the way so that God can do His thing! He has big things for this girl. Not sure what but I can't wait to see it play out! 

She is the leader of the house now. She is in charge of the babes still home. She comes up with fun things for her and Sage to do and is quite the entertainer for Z man. 

I love having her home and am trying to enjoy these last few months. They just seem to grow up so much when they go to school.
