Of Derby, Mother's Day, and May

The school year is winding down and the days fly by.  In fact, today Miss KB is 6 months old! I cannot believe how much my life has changed since her arrival.  Not to mention she has grown quite a bit.





Here in the bluegrass state, the K.entucky D.erby is on par with the Super Bowl.  People around here have parties to celebrate the "most exciting 2 minutes in sports."  We didn't have a party, but KB got into the various Derb.y traditions:

Donning a Der.by hat (thank you, Auntie Beth!). Sorry for the blurry picture.

I know it sounds cliche-ish, but after all the painful years of longing, this day was much sweeter.  Although I must admit, the idea of trying to raise this child and keep her from getting too warped by the world seems like a scary task.  KB and I always pray for all IF sisters out there still waiting. She loves her blogger aunties!
