The spirit of the holidays makes me thankful for so many things in my life.  Most importantly, the people in my life.  As such, today’s Friday Favorite is a person, not a thing.  She’s such an important person she should have her own category as Most Favorite Ever.  In fact, she’s more than a favorite, she’s like family.  I’m talking about Susan.  She is kind, generous, loving and I simply could not ask for a better person to care for my baby.  She continually goes above and beyond…way beyond.  She loves Maxwell the way I love him.  I feel so lucky that she came into our lives.

Susan – I can only hope you know how much you mean to all of us, especially Maxwell!

Besides being an all around great person, Susan is also very crafty.  Wait until you see the bows she made for my decorations!  And look at this super cute apron she and Maxwell made for me…

She even helped Maxwell sign his initials at the bottom.  So cute, so crafty and so thoughtful!  I will cherish it!

On Wednesday, Susan took Maxwell to see Santa.  She said he was a little unsure of him and just wasn’t quite ready to sit on his lap by himself.  So, she just hopped in the picture with him!  LOVE IT!!

I love the adventures these two have together.  Thank you Susan for all that you do!!

If you’ve been reading this bloggy blog a while, you know that Maxwell loves trucks.  So, when a giant Alagasco truck parked itself in front of our house last weekend, Maxwell could hardly contain his curiosity and excitement!

After naptime (hence the awesome hair-do!), we went outside to check it all out.  Maxwell wasn’t quite so sure what to make of it all at first and took his time seeing what he could see..

And what he saw was a big truck very close to our driveway!

He got a little closer to really check it out and was just as happy as he could be!

Funny how something that was so annoying to me turned into something really fun when I saw it through his eyes.  Ah, perspective!
