Classic Her Rubiness!


It was snowing here today!  Yes, I know it is March 26th!  

Well, as I have mentioned before, Ruby does not like layers of clothes.  Her preference is to be barefoot, sleeveless, and spinning around in a twirly skirt or a tutu.  And, I wonder why she has been sick so much this winter??  Today I had her dressed in a darling smock shirt and leggings for a very fun play date with her friend Clara.  That outfit lasted about 1 hour!  Once she saw her pals ballerina dress, she had to get on one of her "prom dresses!"  Did I mention how many cute pairs of pants she has?!  

At about 4:00 she told me she had to go outside and taste the snowflakes..  I indulged her with the agreement she would at least wear a sweater!!!!!  Here you see her "tasting" snowflakes!!!!  There is just something about the freedom of this photo that I love!  Don't worry, she did not stay out long.  And, ten minutes later she was in her snow pants, boots, coat and hat and playing on the swingset!!  Oh, how I love this spunky girl that God picked for us!!

I can not close without a "GET WELL SOON" shout to Grandpa Al, Grandpa Bill, and our friend Katie Ru!  We love you all!

Blessings,

Hi, I hope you don't take this the wrong way...But when you said she doesn't like layers of clothes, I could help of thinking how they layer the children in China...maybe she's making up for lost time... She's so cute! S. Kim

Oh my word, SANDALS even!!! Brrrr. :)

My girls love to "dress down" too... I think they would go barefoot in 45 degree weather if I wasn't looking.

Gorgeous pic of Ruby!

So funny, she sounds like Myah, has a strong mind of her own! I struggle with her "spicyness" on a daily (hourly) basis :) Sometimes you just gotta give in.
Ruby is such a cutie pie! Looks like she was meant to be a true northern girl, she can take the cold!

It is amazing to me how ALIKE Ruby and Kate are. Kate too will not wear long sleeves or tights or pants. it drives me batty! I have chalked it up to what Sister Kim wrote. Thank you for the shout out. I had not been here in a few days but we really appreciate it. I read eery single post here (even if it is a few at a time some days). Hope your Dad is better.

Love,
