Mackenzie

Our Mackenzie has become this little lady lately. She can be very sassy and very sweet in the same moment. Her mood swings are frightening, and I am afraid for the teenage years already! She has such a big heart and has become such an amazing big sister to Gavin. She has always been helpful, but she seems to have taken on the role of mothering him when I am not in the room.
She is very much the artist! She is very good at looking at something and then drawing it. She is reading so much better these days, and loves to be the reader at night instead of having me read to her.
I just felt like I needed to take a moment and remember my sweet Mackenzie at this stage in her life. I am afraid that the growing won't ever stop, and my "little" girl will be a teen in no time at all! What a scary thought!
