Once upon a time in a land far, far away called San Jose lived a little princess named Holly. More than anything in the whole wide world Holly wanted a baby sister for her very own. She knew exactly what she had to do. She had to pray and ask the good Lord for a baby sister. Yes, her mommy and daddy tried to suggest that sometimes even when we ask God to give us something His answer may not be what we had in mind but she was not going to be deterred from getting her heart’s desire so pray she did everyday until…

She got a baby sister and then…

she got another baby sister and then…

along came another baby sister!
What a lucky princess Holly was! If pressed she will admit that she is so lucky to be surrounded by sisters (and a little brother) but I would bet that she would also have to agree with the old saying of “be careful what you pray for”. As for me, well, I’m glad that she prayed for a baby sister.














pictures are great – really like the aquarium ones… looks like Hazel was an angel….

Awwww…your big, beautiful family actually makes me (kind of) want more than two kids! My daughter is going to have hair exactly like your Zoe…(I think it’s Zoe…the one with the beautiful curlies!) and I have no idea where it came from or what to do with it! I guess she’ll have to figure it out for herself! For now it’s pigtails all the way!
