I love being a mom. I am so blessed to have three beautiful children. After Mylee when I was pregnant with Halle I wasn't too worried, because I have done this before...I know what to do. Well, then we found out Halle had a heart problem and we delivered her, almost lost her, and spent literally the first year and a half of her life between doctor visits and hospital stays. We have been very blessed that Halle is so healthy now and so ACTIVE. We really were not sure what to expect given her Syndrome and the heart condition.
So, now the doctors visits have been spaced out and the prognosis much more positive. SHe is doing very well in all areas of development. But, she is my challenge. She is so different from Mylee. All the things that worked for Mylee do no good for Halle. Halle is very curious she is almost three and is literally in everything...constantly. She is always bugging Abby and ripping books, writing on the walls, getting into my makeup, flushing random items down the toilet..so fun! She LOVES Time OUT! She really does! I am not a spanker...so I am desperately searching for an appropriate punishment. Also, along with the misbehaving comes the most sweetest spirited child you would ever meet. She can sing I am A child of God with near perfect pitch. She can sing The Mulan song, and Mermaid song and she knows all the words. She is always calling me Lis and Lisa. She is always saying the funniest things and is very loving. She is so different.. I love her so much..I just get sad when she pushes the neighbor girl down, pokes the baby twins next door and so lovingly asks "Can I HIT her?" She is definately my challenge but I love her so much!!! So I am sorry if she has been mean to any of your children... I am really trying and I know she loves everyone..in her prayers she consistently prays for Malia and Alicen! Very sweet! Today she added Emily and Elorie!

oh, that post just made me cry. Lisa, she is such an amazing little girl. (and I'm not just saying that because she prays for me) :) You can tell she was one of Heavenly Father's strongest as she pushes through this condition her body was given. I'm sorry, but that is the cutest thing I've ever heard, "can I hit her?" I can just hear her sweetly saying that. Yes, I am very excited to have your kids come over tonight and I hope your YW activity is the funnest...it sounds magical! :) Love you too sister.
Lisa, I am so glad to hear from you! I have to agree with Alicen, that is the funniest comment! Can I HIT her? LOL hahahahaha! I seriously laughed so hard at that. I can definitely hear some similarities between her and Haily. Haily has been a challenge for me sometimes. We are doing very well, but I miss my old Newcastle Greene friends! Tell Emily and Elorie I said hello!
For safety sake, I changed my blog name to http://camboslife.blogspot.com/. Come find me still!
"Can I hit her?" is the funniest thing I've heard in a long time! Its almost like she expects a different answer because she is asking. I gotta hand it to you Lisa you are the only one I know strong enough to have a child like Halle. It has to be harder haveing a child with conditions rather than having the condition yourself! Love ya!
