It takes a lot energy being her

How an energetic 3 year old starts her day:

She carbs up.  It takes a lot of energy being her.

Then she poses for her fans.  (that would be the lady with the camera and her drooling little brother)

“Ok, just one more picture, ” she says to the camera.  And then . . .

Ready, set go!  She’s off!

Hop, hop, hop!  Up and down her hopscotch mat she goes!

And oh, the impressive part is that all this happens around 6 a.m. every morning.  Phew!

Sometimes I wish that I could bottle up some of that energy for myself. Seriously, it’s just so impressive how they never stop moving.

I know (sigh, :-) ). My hubby asks me, “How do you keep up with her?” This is after he spends an hour or so with her in the evening. I laugh. I have no idea . . . good drugs? Lol, now that makes me think of another post I need to write . . .

Nicole, thank you, :-) You know I am a big fan of your work too.

Mom, I’d love for Annabelle to share her energy with us old folks . . . then again, most of the time, just being around her, I find that her energy is contagious. She is such a pip!

Beautiful photos, Jessica of a beautiful, little/big girl! I so enjoy watching Annabelle grow before our eyes!

I think the energy of little ones is contagious, too! I spend my days with elementary school children and I am invigorated by their energy, curiosity; they definitely keep us young!
