I don't if you have heard that song by Tim McGraw "My Little Girl" but it is awesome. I love that song almost as much as Ethan. He insisted on having that song on Kambers video we made. It goes perfect with the pictures that are there. Today I have been thinking a lot of my little girl. Thinking of how much I miss having her physically here with me. I enjoy all my girls, but I also enjoyed the time I got to spend with just Kamber. Last year Tayler and Kylie went to school and I was pregnant with Brookie so I got a few hours everyday with just Kamber and I. I enjoyed getting to hold her and rock her to sleep while watching Dora. Sometimes she would help me make lunch and we would sit together and eat. Other times we would go and run errands together and just talk. She would point out all the things she thought was wonderful. "Lookie mama" that is what she would always say. If I didn't pat attention she would softly grab my face with one hand and make me look at her. She would always smile and give a little giggle and repeat "Lookie Mama" and point at what interested her most. She loved balls and dolls. Many times I would buy her a little toy. Those where sweet times. She makes me smile. Oh how I miss those times. Wish I could have one more time with her. There would be so many things I would tell her. I just have to remind myself just a little longer I have to wait. I will have those times again and how sweet they will be. Just a little longer.
What a beautiful little girl from the inside out. What a beautiful little girl with a strong example for all of us to live up to. She's got it all and knows it all. What a beautiful little girl.

Hey Jen, I read your blog and then I think to my self I better take life a little more slower to enjoy what I have, mostly my children. Thanks for your thoughts, Tara T.
I love hearing stories of Kamber. Thanks for sharing them. I can picture her touching your face to make you pay attention to what was so very important to her. You will enjoy those moments again and I'm sure she is as anxious for that as you are. We love you!!
This is one of my favorite songs and I am sure that it means even more to you with Kamber gone. I love all of your little memories and I am so glad that you are writing them down so that you can always live with those sweet moments in your heart. I am grateful, as you are, to know that you will be with your sweetie again. Thanks for all of your special thoughts.
Yor are right she is Beautiful from the inside out, I loved reading what you wrote about her. When she wanted our attention she sure knew how to get it. I still remember her point to my belly saying baby and wanting to lift my shirt up to see where my baby was. We miss her so such too.
Thanks for sharing.. we love spending time with you and your family, we have so many memories and more to come.
I loved what you wrote today. I love to hear about her, the things she would say and the things she would do. Thanks for sharing them with us. She is so very very precious.
Your words and thoughts are always so sweet and inspiriing. They are so uplifiting. Today Evelynne was with me when I was looking at your blog and she saw the picture of Kamber and said, "Hey mom, there is little Kamb". I have no idea how she even would remember Kamber, but it was very neat.
Jen, I do not know you and I came across your blog by chance (blog surfing :0)) and I am so grateful I did! Your beautiful little Kamber reminds me SO MUCH of my 5 year old Brooklin (I love that you too have a Brooklen and her cousins call her Brookie too!), but I also have a 2 1/2 year old (Linkin) that looks so much like Kamber. Just seeing her smiling and hearing your stories LITERALLY has me in TEARS!!! My kids keep asking me why I'm crying, but I can hardly speak. Hearing you tell about finding her pajamas got the tears flowing and I just can't make them stop.
My heart is so full and I am so thankful for your blog. I have had many days overwhelmed by my life and my busy little ones and am SO THANKFUL for this opportunity to stop and just love them. Love their busyness and forget the rest. Thank you, Jen for touching my heart today. I really do love you for it and I can't help but overwhelmingly love Kamber too.
My blog is private, but if you'd like to read it (you don't have to post or comment), e-mail me your address and I'll send you an invite. :0) ~Jami Richardson
Hi Jen. I have been a silent reader to your blog and not a single moment of reading I don't shed tears. You are a very strong woman. Thank you for sharing your moments with Kamber. She was an adorable angel..
Very nicely said.
