Two Troopers

I've talked a lot this last year about how hard it is to travel with kids. How tough it is to take them important places. But now I want to tell you how proud I am of all they've put up with: being made to sit still for so long, moving from strange place to strange place, new beds and new food, going everywhere mom and dad want to go and looking at things that aren't very interesting, having to keep little hands to themselves when it is so tempting to touch everything, having to walk when they want to be carried, and having to be carried when they want to walk.

We've asked a lot of these little girls so that we can do everything we want to do, and despite some meltdowns and frustrating moments, they have been mostly amazing little troopers to go along with all our travels.

I love them so much!

Thank you, babies!


p.s. Aren't they gorgeous?!

You and Roo are the most amazing parents. I just hope as time goes by and the girls look at these pictures they will remember good times with mom and dad. They are indeed gorgeous and delightful little companions.
