Happy Birthday, Sarah Belle!!!

By -
Three years ago, I heard these words, "Well, Mrs. Fuller, you are in labor, but it's not very impressive. Being that you live an hour away from the hospital and this will be your third child, I don't want to send you home."

Even though it was two and a half weeks before my due date, I was happy. My house was somewhat ready for the baby to arrive. So, we settled in to the wonderful REX Family Birth Center for the night.

These are the oldest photos I have of my baby girl on my computer.

She is a ball of energy. A spontaneous girl. She likes to have a good time.

She likes to dress up. She always has a purse on her arm. She is quite prissy.

Sarah Belle loves her little brother. It is quite amazing the bond they share. She 'mothers' him a lot. She doesn't like for him to be unhappy in any way.

She also loves her big sister immensely. They love to play baby dolls or kitchen together. They also love to dress alike. And, Sarah Belle loves to know that she is wearing clothes that were once Anna Brooke's.

Sarah Belle has many facial expressions. They are hard to capture with the camera. My Mom tells me I did the same thing when I was her age.

Sarah Belle also loves her big brother dearly. They are a lot alike. They are both so full of energy. Neither one of them like to go to bed at night or take a rest during the day.

She's just so cute. She and I have an interdependent relationship. She needs me and I need her. Actually, I have this sort of relationship with all of the little Fullers.

Some things you should know about her:
-She loves the color purple.
-She likes to eat.
-She is the best Mommy to her baby dolls.
-She has quickly moved from Dora to Barbie.
-She has recently stopped wearing "Diaper Panties" to bed at night.
-She likes to wear make up.
-She is a girly girl!

Happy Birthday Baby Girl, Belle-Belle!!

Pretty...

Hello There! There is something that has bothered me for years. I have begun to do better, and encouraged others to change their ways. This is it... Why do people almost always compliment little girls on their appearance first? Little girls are held to a higher standard in regard to their appearance and little boys are held to a very low standard regarding their behavior. This baffles me. I know you've heard it, probably even done it.  What's the first thing most people say to a little girl? "You're so pretty!" "Your dress is so pretty!" Why not compliment how compassionate & respectful she is because you just witnessed her let an older person get on the elevator first? Brave because you see the band-aid on her arm from a doctor visit? Smart...maybe she has a book in her hand! Funny...did she just tell the best joke you've heard all week? Creative...does she have an ornate hairstyle?  Or an outfit you would have never

Train Up A Child... Christmas edition

Many have asked how we teach our children about Jesus and still participate in the fun of Santa, Elf on the Shelf, etc... I say it simply, they know that Jesus is the true reason for Christmas.  I have had a motto for many years, " If all we put into their little hearts & minds is JESUS, then He is all that will come out!"   Here are some things we do: We GO to church.  We do not go out of habit or obligation, we go because we want to worship corporately every chance we get.  Our children have all attended Sunday school since they were very young.  I was the Mom bringing my baby to church at 9 days old, 4 days old, two weeks old...  As soon as I was able to get myself dressed by church time, we were there. Since our children were all very young, we have had nightly devotion time as a family.  Sometimes, this has been a simple prayer together after a long day.  More recently, we actually read from a children's devotional book.  The children often read it then D

A few weeks ago school started here in FullerTown. We didn't have much homework that first week. Yay!!  Then last week, we didn't have ANY due to an evening event at the church that sponsors the school.   We were really excited!  A long weekend made us feel like we were on vacation.  This week, the homework has hit us full-force. We are on the midst of learning new spelling words, Bible verses, etc...  We are also collecting insects and bark rubbings for two different projects.  May this be our best school year yet!!!
