Hope is Here --- Almost

I can't wait:  Hope will be home tomorrow!  We pick her up from the airport at 9 in the morning.  Then we will have her for a whole week.

Hope is my blonde-haired, blue-eyed twin.  Full of quiet spunk, she is a dedicated, loving young woman.  She is a beautiful writer and can read more quickly than anyone I know.  She is in her first year of law school and is loving every minute of it.  The only thing I dislike about it is the fact that she is so far away from me.  I miss her.

From the moment Hope was born, she has been right by me.  We love doing everything together.



Jacob was the first one to hold Hope after she was born.  As the big brother, he was all smiles and kisses.  When she was just one day old, Hope lay next to Jacob in the hospital bed while he read to her.  They've been there for each other since.

Born with dark, almost black red hair, Hope was so tiny.  She weighed 8 lbs. 3 oz., a small baby.  She was like my living baby doll.  I could dress her up in gowns and bows.


My mind is all over the place tonight.  I have so many memories of Hope swimming around in my head.  I will choose one and expand it later.
