That sweet face...

Look at this little cutie pie...
That sweet face SAVES her on a regular basis!!
Surely this isn't the face of a girl who has gotten thrown out of nursery.
(OK that's a little dramatic...she was just told she had to finish church with mommy and she would be able to come back when she stopped spitting in the faces of the teachers)
Surely this isn't the face of the girl who got in trouble, got sent to her room, sneaked into Mom & Dad's room to get a full cup of water to pour ALL over her bed
And it COULDN'T be the girl who growls loudly when she gets frustrated/upset
(thanks alot Kai Lan - her favorite show)
And certainly it isn't the girl who had a FULL melt down when we went in to pick up Thai food because I made her put her shoes back on (how unreasonable of me).  The food wasn't ready yet.  Imagine arching back, kicking feet, big tears, and me carrying her and Jane (in her car seat) back to the car to wait.  Oh and don't forget to pick up the shoes that she just threw half way across the room.  Ha!

It is the face of the girl who gives me "big squeezy" hugs
And the girl who tells me the song "Familes Can be Together Forever" makes her cry
It is the beautiful face of the girl who comes to cuddle me every morning
and the face that completely lights up when Jane comes in the room
It's also the sweet face of a girl who asks if I'm ok after I cough
and the girl who likes to sing lullabies to her sister.
It is the face of a girl who tells me, "Thank you, My Highness" after I give her something (not sure where that one came from LOL!)
and says, "I don't feel the Holy Ghost in my heart anymore!" occasionally when there is tension

Our Sarah is smart, sweet, and sassy.
And we wouldn't have it any other way.
