My "Gorgeous"

It seems like there's never any time to write these days. It's not for lack of inspiration or musing. I'm just, for lack of a better word, spent. I feel nagging guilt about it, because I know that I'm not documenting my Ella's world, the way I did her brother's. Yet, I hope she will believe me when I tell her during the time that I spent not writing about her, that I savored her baby years in a more profound and present way, than I was ever able to do with her brother. With Greyson in school for most of the day now, it leaves Ella and I hours alone to enjoy each other for the first time since she's been born. I cherish this unveiling of the little personality we've added to our family. She is a strong-willed, private, exuberant, musical, introverted, affectionate and fiercely opinionated little girl. She adores her brother, loves sand, is addicted to shoes and balloons always make her smile. I can't get enough of her.
