Wake Up to Life
Alexiess, is my first cousin twice removed. I could just easily say too, that she’s my granddaughter (thru my cousin). She turned 1 year old, and was Christened, yesterday April 29th.
She is so pretty, isn’t she? And that tutu dress? So cute and so bagay for her (suits her perfectly).
How time flies. She now has several teeth. Walks easily with assistance (not brave enough to walk on her own just yet), and very noisy. She knows how to catch your attention, loves to sing along, and knows how to get exactly what she wants.
Looking back at this photo from about 10 months ago, I can’t believe how much she’s grown. She no longer fits on her bouncer, and we definitely cannot leave her on that any more. And she does more stuff than sleep and suck now. She loves to eat, and crawl, and go on car rides.
How time flies.
We celebrate the milestones of Alexiess’ childhood now, but what really comes to mind now is how we should cherish each moment and how we need to be present.
Once again I am reminded to wake up to life. I wouldn’t want to miss so much of life while I sleep. If you know what I mean.

I never really understood it when someone says twice removed. 🙂 And life says, “Good morning!” How are you Vera?

Good morning too Ceemee! Things are actually really going good with me. I wish it was reflected on my blog more though. 🙂 Hope all is well with you and your family!

This reminded me that time flies so fast that babies turns a year older and you’d stopped and asked what did just happened? We should indeed live life to the fullest every time we had the chance 🙂

I saw that blood relations chart, too and I got confused.
I love girls in tutus. Why aren’t tutus available when I was a child? I could have had a photo in a tutu, too. On second thought, I have a few photos when I did ballet.
