Ode to my Vivy...

Unfortunately, after reviewing my blog and its content, I realized that I don't have nearly enough information on the little girl who owns my heart and soul.

There is a sunny spot in every one of my days...her name is VivyAnn Marie Widdowson. This little girl can lift my spirit on the gloomiest of afternoons and make me smile despite the foulest of moods.

Every morning I am greeted with her sweet voice, "Goot Mowning, Mom. I wake up in my pwincess bed." It is the same line every morning...I have come to look forward to it. We snuggle for awhile until she tells me she is ready for bweakfass. It is hard to have a bad day when it starts like that. :)


She is a perfect mix of sugar and spice.
She is a spunky little thing that can hold her own in the neighborhood.
She manages to use her good manners when we are at our friends homes.
She loves to dance with me to any kind of music.
She loves to play "make believe" with her babies.
She loves candy in all forms.
She loves to follow her big sister anywhere.
She loves to hold hands during family prayer.
She loves to torment her little brother by shutting doors in his face.
She loves "ChocaMilk" (chocolate milk...and actually it's more like an addiction.)

Each of my children have a special place in my heart. It is as if my heart had three special spaces and each space has been uniquely filled with each child and their personality. I am eternally grateful that I had a"Vivy Space". Our spirits are kindred.
