My sweet girls

It's hard to believe how fast my girls are growing up these days.

Adah amazes me each day with maturity and responsibility. I really don't know what I would do without her if I sent her to school. People often ask me how do I raise 5 kids and home school. Well, the answer is with the Lord help...and... Adah! :) She is my right hand around the house! Her spiritual gift is being a servant. She walks in that gift with such beauty and grace. Another gift the Lord has given her is creativity. She is always designing new things each day. I find these days I often seek her opinion regarding my outfit or about some home design decision.

My little Annascott is no longer a baby! She has a very interesting personality. I like to say Adah is my "sweet potato" and Annascott is "sweet n spicy!" When I see them together I am always to thankful to the Lord for providing a sister for Adah. What a blessing they both are and the perfect Head and Toe to the Anderson crew.

Since we have moved into our new house we have let the girls share a room. I was not sure how that would work...considering there is a 7 1/2 year age gap. However, I knew if it was ever going to happen...now would be my best chance. So far...things have worked wonderfully. I consider each day as one more memory they will have to share as sisters. It has become a tradition that Annascott waits until Adah comes to bed and then whimpers until Adah picks her up and brings her to bed with her. Adah tucks her in and then starts her bedtime reading while Annascott falls asleep by her side. Last night I was able to capture a sweet picture of this for them to remember before they quickly grow up!
