Dear my little bugs,
Well, Christmas came and went and we spent our month of January playing on our new swings. You two love them so much, and that is mostly what you do when you go outside. Elise, you have learned to pump your legs although you refuse to do so. You want us to push you. I don’t mind, because those days that we can do things for you are so short. Jake, on the swings you just like to look at your toes and smile. It is just about the cutest thing I have ever seen. You both also love to lay on your bellies on the swing and have your Daddy twist it up and you twirl around and around and around- enough times to make a normal person loose their lunch.
Elise, you started big girl school this month and left Suzi’s Zoo. That was so difficult for both of us, but you seem to be blossoming. Jake, now that you are on your own, you seem to be able to show more as your personality as well. It is amazing to see how different things are from a month ago, a year ago, two years ago. Our lives are changing so quickly and I don’t want to miss a thing.
I love you forever.

Lovely letter Alison, my favorite picture was of Jake’s little feet outstretched, I bet he was trying to look at his toesies. Life does change so quickly when they are small. By the way is that a chicken in the background pic of them swinging together?
