this girl causes for much reflection
She is kind of difficult. She is very strong-willed. She is a fighter and persistent. Isn't this what we all want in our children?
Many might say- "oh she is only 11 months old...give her time- she will change" but you know it is quite evident that this girl isn't going to change much...she came out of the womb fighting for something-
I can already imagine what she will teach me in this life...
I wasn't the most agreeable little girl either and I still don't think I am at times- I still have vivid memories of some of the arguments I would get into with my dad. I just had to prove my strength somehow. Why? What was I holding on to?
My stubbornness has been a gift--only because I have sought to change it and so it has been an invitation to reflect inside and see where it all originates- what fuels it...and maybe it will help me embrace Julia in all her crazy realms and to just breathe deeply through it all. The more we know ourselves the more we will know how to deal with our relationships.

Oh so sweet. She is getting so big. Thank you for sharing pictures so we can see you all.
You two are absolutely gorgeous! I love those pictures so much! Thank you for "Deep Thoughts" by Jack Handy, I mean April Clark.... LOL
I am dealing with this right now with Hailey. She has been so sassy lately... hmmmm, I highly doubt I was ever sassy... not sure where this little girl gets it.... must be from Robbie....
At least she is one cute stubborn girl! Those piggy tails are dang cute!
She is so cute, and it is fun to see you on your blog also. A great lady in our ward once told me that intreasting kids make for intreasting adults. You would rather have your kids full of personality, then dull and boring. When she told me this I didn't get it, because I was too busy trying to "understand" my first born. I get it now. Plus you want to raise strong kids. They have a scary world ahead of them!!! But whatever she is so cute and sweet, I think you are tellig lies!!! LOL
