I had the most spectacular Mother's Day just being treated like royalty by the boys & Sage. Every once in awhile I would just look around and fight tears- tears of thankfulness. My heart is just so full of love for these healthy, loving, mischievous, forgiving, hilarious kids! I am beyond thankful to God for the gifts he has given me through family- it made me warm inside and just feel blessed beyond belief to spend the day with them all.
The handmade gifts, potted flowers, poems, hand holding & kisses, little snuggles, twirling dances-
thank you Sullivan, Sawyer, Sutton & Sage for the fabulous Mother's Day. The memories will forever stay with me.
Sage lost her first tooth and I cried! I don't exactly know why, maybe it is saying goodbye to her baby & toddler years and a step towards her growing up- I don't know, it just was sad.
However, she is simply charming with her new tooth already growing in and I had to include that today in my post. Last night Tim took the boys to a movie and Sage and I had (as she calls it) "girl time" and spent the afternoon/evening picking flowers & Sidewalk chalking our driveway. I, of course, had to get pictures so I could share with everyone how much fun I had with Sage.
I.simply.love.her.

I think if anyone asked me what love looks like...I'd have to show them the 7th picture. I think...that's what love looks like.
oh my goodness! ( : i'm speachless!
Hi Libby,
Thanks so much for posting these precious pictures of Sage. I don't think it's silly to cry over that first lost tooth! I did the same when my "baby" lost hers! It is symbolic of a new stage. My favorite of these shots, has to be #5. I love the effect of the black and white with a colored rainbow! Sweet memories!
Well, now you have me crying. She is certainly growing up - does that mean I'm really getting older?? I can remember crying when you lost your first tooth, when you left the first day for school, when you went off to camp the first time and on and on. I love you all so much.

I am so glad you had a great Mother's Day! I can never get enough pictures of your beautiful Chapin! As on Guate mama to another, I have tears rolling down my cheeks at how incredibly blessed we are! See you in July!
Sage is the most beautiful little girl in the WHOLE WORLD! But I'm sure you already knew that!
Oh she breaks my heart! Did you cry? I am the biggest cry baby when it comes to Chloe, and not one tooth is loose yet, however the end of her Kindergarten year is coming and I can feel my heart breaking alreadY!!
Sage is gorgeous and I absolutely ADORE and ADMIRE your skills.
Sage is beautiful! Congratulations on the snaggle toothed smile! :) I love your post about Mother's Day. I couldn't agree more....what a wonderfully blessed life to live. My heart just gushes. I LOVE the picture of Sage and the sidewalk chalk spelling her name (and the handprints). I have to say though, that my all time favorite photo I have seen of yours is the one of Sage with the Guatemalan cloth around her. I would love to have one of those of my sweet Kemry, but I didn't buy anything like that while in Guatemala. Ahh Anyway, it's beautiful!
Libby- Your daughter is so beautiful!! Thank you for your kind comment on my blog. I am loving my new background as well!! It's the Zachary from the lady that you told me about, Thank you!!
