Like Mother, Like Daughter

Two and a half years ago I was doing this:

And now my precious baby is doing this:

just look at those thighs!!

Veronika is a hopeless baby lover just like me. We are praying for another baby to take care of and love on!!

Nearly every day of Nika’s life she has seen Mommy do this:

Just look at her writing in her journal!! Looks like she still needs some lessons in holding the pencil!!

Today we are doing this:

Before I know it Veronika will be doing these things on her own. That is the chain of life- a mother teaches her daughter, the daughter grows up and teaches her daughter… generations come and go and traditions are passed from one to the next for hundreds of years!

I love this Mommy thing! I love this passing from one generation to the next! This is the way we love babies, keep record of life in our journals, mix up a chocolate birthday cake, butcher a pig and knead the bread. This is how we do our part to make the world go around.
