{since her little dress up time a few days ago, these pearls have not left her body. except for sleep.
they are the first thing she asks for when she wakes up and out of the bathtub.}
I love being a girl. I love all of the superficial parts, dresses, makeup, mani's and accessories.
BUT. I also cherish the qualities and characteristics that define women. I love that the role in my family, among many things is to nurture and support and I wouldn't want it any other way.
It is quiet, strong and beautiful.
I am also thankful that I have so many women to look to who are feminine, happy, and strong.
I am thankful my mom taught me the joy of being a woman and embraced
her role with her whole heart.
Being a girl does have its challenges,
despite my many moments of complaint throughout the years
I wouldn't trade it.
Feeling this little girl inside of me is such an honor and a sacred blessing.
Being (pregnant) and a mother has definitely made me softer,
just the way a woman should be I think.
Today I am thankful to be a girl and thankful
that very soon I will have two of them to call my own.
(I must add that I am NOT thankful for earthquakes or tornadoes, we have had too many for my liking this past week. So Dear Earth, please calm down.
You might cause me to have a heart attack if you keep this up.)

She looks so cute in her accessories! You've been having more earthquakes and tornadoes?! That is scary. I think you should move to Phoenix! ;) ;)
I am thankful that you put up these pictures so we can ADORE grace. I can't wait to see what the next little angel looks like. I sure do miss your beautiful face.
so cute. I love that she wouldn't take off her pearls, I guess pearls are like a little boys toy car, Dallin won't let his go. She is a doll and your next little girl will be also. I can't wait to see what she will look like:)
