Smiles to be seen and sorry notes to be written....

Well I am still anxiously awaiting my smiles from Raegan Joy. She doesn't hold back from her daddy but she teases me daily. I suppose me holding the camera in her face makes her bashful...haha!So I have caught several "almost smiles" this week week, but yet to capture the true gummy grin she flashes when she is in her daddy's arms.







On the flip side of always looking for a happy smile I have had my share of frowns and hurt feelings. Over this past week I have really been working on my older boys to be mindful of how powerful and hurtful words and tone of voice can be. At my witts end this morning I made them not only hug and makeup but write a letter to each other saying they were sorry. I was impressed how they really took time to do it and it made them think about what they have done.


This is Cohen's letter to Brasen Thomas. (age 6 -kindergarten)
