Today I am so thankful for my Giana girl. I was hoping to snap a new picture of her today to go with this post, but she didn’t stay still long enough! She is always on the go – dancing, singing, or literally running circles around me. She is such a little ham and makes me laugh all the time. I am so thankful to see her little personality taking shape.

She is also a great big sister. When I sing “Jesus Loves Me” to her each night before bed, I usually sing a verse I made up that includes her name. I sang it tonight – “Jesus loves Giana Marie” – and she stopped me to ask me to sing “Jesus loves baby ya-ya-yell” (that’s baby Mariel). I am so proud of her!
