Mary your girls are so beautiful! Big sis seems more than happy to provide a comfy nap place. Story time almost always turns into nap time for our youngest too.
One of the best pictures I’ve seen in a while. Both your girls look so content!
so sweet!!
That is so cute!!!
Awwwwwe, that’s too cute:-)
What an adorable photo!! So precious, Mary. You are blessed.
Your post today reminds me of the opening of your book, when the kids are laying around listening to your husband read & your little sweetie falls asleep in your arms.

many thanks for writing what you live.

Is she really sleeping? Oh, my goodness, how adorable!
