Last week I started a new bible study with some moms at our church. We introduced ourselves and then our children by drawing them in color. The colors we choose represented their personalities. I thought is was a very creative and effective way to describe Grace and Elijah, so I thought I would share it with you, so you can get to know our little pumpkins better!!
GRACE
She is 100% girl (notice the purple and pinks). She loves to emulate mommy by helping with Baby Elijah, carrying her purse, pushing her baby in the stroller, getting the broom out to sweep the floors, cleaning up the floors with napkins when she spills her milk, and playing with makeup. She isn't crazy about clothes yet, but that could be a good thing. :)
I had to use marker instead of pencil or crayon because her personality is bold and loud. She is high energy, goofy, sometimes high maintenance, extremely curious, super smart, doesn't meet a stranger, and the life of the party. She likes to terrorize Emma the dog, run and scream with delight throughout the house, play rough with her dad, throw balls and toys, and get messy in the dirt.
There is a serene side to her also. She can listen, obey (at times) and be so very thoughtful. She loves to pray and reminds us several times throughout dinner and our day. She is an incredible blessing and challenges us daily to be better parents and better people.
ELIJAH
Well, he is only three weeks old, but he still is so different even as a baby. He is incredibly laid back, calm, and sleeps incredibly well. He is an easy, easy baby. I look forward to seeing the little man he will be!
