We have two five year olds in our family. One from my womb, the other birthed in my heart.
The one weighs fifty pounds. His sister--only nineteen pounds.
That's a big difference in weight and size.
But we're rejoicing in our home! Hailee has gained three pounds in just one month. She may just catch up to her brother after all. The change in her is amazing. There are no words.
How blessed we are to have doubled the five year olds recently.
They could not be more precious. And we could not be more blessed to be entrusted with these whom the LORD has given us.
Just a few months apart, these two are so very opposite. The love between them warms my heart. The Father knew that this little girl needed this boy to be her brother--before the foundation of the world. He does ALL things well, our God.
"Would you like to have a flower, Hailee?"
They take my breath away. So different, so unique, so absolutely perfect in every way.
Each five year old fearfully and wonderfully made...JUST the way they are.
How exceedingly blessed I am to call these my children--the ones the Father destined to me mine. There is nothing sweeter in this life than being their mommy.
Counting my many blessings today.

Your five years old are precious! Hailee looks so adorable with her hair growing out some chub on her and with her handsome brother!
The difference I can see in her is amazing!!!! WOW, 3 pounds, that is great! I have goose bumps just thinking of how far she has already come just in what I am seeing on your blog. Has she graduated from the hat? They look so sweet together and I know they will have a special relationship.
OH MY STARS! I LOVE HER HAIR! So nice to see her and her brother out in nature! LOVIN ON EACH OTHER!
I adore this post Adeye! Many blessing your way!
Just beautiful! :)
Absolutely Adorable!
I have two 8 year olds ... one born from my tummy, one born from my heart. In some ways so very different, in some ways so very much the same. God gave me "twins" when I least expected it.
Praising Jesus for His BLESSINGS!!!
