A list, because lists are cool.

My kids are awesome. I was never a person who felt like I HAD to have kids. But since day one, I find myself amazed that somehow I was a part of them coming into existence. So here ya go, ten of the top reasons I love each of my kids.

Oliver:
1. He is serious. And I love that. This kid is a physical clone of his father, but I have a feeling his brain works just like mine. (Which accounts for the size lol)
2. He has a great sense of humor. When I can understand him, he usually knows how to make me laugh.
3. He loves ninja turtles. I love ninja turtles. Enough said.
4. He's polite. Unless he's over-tired, he's going to say yes ma'am and please. And I didn't do much to get that established. He also says excuse me. Because he rocks.
5. He's an animal lover.
6. He likes to give surprise hugs and kisses.
7. He likes to play hide and seek.
8. He misses the numbers 1 and 3 when he counts to 6.
9. He has beautiful eyes.
10. He loves his sister.

Layan:
1. She has the biggest laugh of any young child I have ever met...if you can get it out of her.
2. She's going to be my chatter box. I can feel it now.
3. She has "the look".
4. She is interested in everything around her. She watched Les Mis with me like it was Yo Gabba Gabba.
5. She loves her Uncle Phil.
6. From the day we brought her home, she has adored her big brother and loves talking to him.
7. Her hair. It's beautiful and there's a lot of it.
8. She really seems like she's not afraid of anything.
9. She's got my eyes. Hopefully they stick around. You know how those recessive genes can be.
10. She's little but strong.
