Day 9: Nieces.

"A niece adds beauty, joy and love to life."

This quote is so true. I am lucky enough to have three  beautiful,  fun-loving nieces. They, in addition to my nephew, are my world. They teach me so much about family, love, friendship, growing, parenting, and life in general. It's amazing what we can learn from children.

Allison Faith. 
My Allie Pal is my buddy. She is a tenacious, independent, go get em' three year old. She will let you know it. Recently she has taken up singing (I think she gets it from her Aunt Marin!) and it is awesome! She is a funny character for sure! That part she gets from me. She has such a big personality for such a little person. It's remarkable and admirable and I only hope it continues to grow as she gets older :)

Leah Reese.
Oh Leah Bean. You free spirit you. I remember when we gave you the nickname of Leah Bean...you were just a bean in Uncle Will's arms... You are a truly gifted young gal. She is so smart! Last time I saw her, I thought she was a mini teenager! It could be her sassy  clothing...yes, she dresses sassier than me. What of it! She does have quite the personality. She loves to dance and entertain, but she also can be loving and gives some of the best hugs ever with a little sass on the side!

Kinsey Marie.
My sweet Kinsey.Kinsey is my Goddaughter. She is a sweet, kind little girl. She is quite shy around most people except her mom and dad and for that she reminds me a lot of myself when I was her age. Kins loves to cuddle and loves to play. She likes to be part of the fun! She apparently talks about me and my unborn children (WTH?!) with my brother and sister-in-law. She is my twin with glasses :) Except hers has Hello Kitty. I love how she smiles and gets this shyness about her when you approach her, but can give you the biggest hug when you leave.

My nieces are pretty much the three cutest and most fun girls you'll ever meet, but then again, I am a little biased ;)

Today nieces, I am thankful for you.
