"Our Family" by Makell

I absolutely loved this picture when I saw it and decided I needed to blog about it! This morning Kourtney and Kaitlyn went to their reading groups and Makell felt a little left out. We usually all ride our bikes together but today I had several things I needed to get done so it was just Kourtney and Kaitlyn that went. Makell was sad that we weren't able to go with them. After the girls had left she gathered some paper,pencils, pens and sat down at the table and started to draw. When I came back up stairs she was sitting so still and being so quiet, I figured I wouldn't interrupt her and finished doing some of my things. Several minutes later I came back and asked her what she was drawing? She replied, " I draw a picture of "my" daddy, "my" mommy, "my" Kourtney, "my" Kaitlyn, and ME!!! This totally made my day! I think she was really missing her sisters and daddy and decided to draw a picture of them.

I think this is the first family picture she has ever drawn! For only being two I think she did a fabulous job!!! She was so proud of her picture!! I can't help but think about this saying when I look at her picture. "We might not have it all together, but together we have it ALL". Besides the multiple limbs, crazy hair(or no hair) that she drew, there are five circles and we all have smiles on our faces!!! I am so thankful for Makell and the joy, love, and happiness she brings into our lives!! I can't even imagine our lives without her! WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH MAKELL!!!
