The Definition of B-U-S-Y

B is for babies
    busy busy babies
    babbling babies
    bunch of two babies
    bold baby
    beautiful babies
    barb's precious babies
    big girl too
    big girl with bountiful vocabulary
    big girl voicing amazement at the mountains and stars - "sooooo beautiful!"
    big girl asking why. more than once...

U is for up and down & up and down & up and down the slides
    upside down life for the dogs
    "up peezzzz, peezzzz, peezzzz...." until it got the job done
    under covers on her little mattress in my closet slept the cutest little sleeping beauty
   
S is for super duper mommies  
    special beyond words moments
    sucking thumb and pacifiers
    sore hands and wrists but ones that were so-gratefully enough
    super-smoothie-making Opi
    swimming in the jacuzzi
    so so so cute times three, and almost four
    sleepy grownups and sometimes-snoozing little ones
    scratch on a little nose by a very bad and forever baby-banned dog
    school for the preschooler. special mommy-homeschool, that is!
    sobbing, as kiddos do sometimes. sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't!
    sitting in my lap alot, reading books alot, books I read my kids long ago
    so very thankful, beyond words, to have these seven precious people in our lives
   
Y is for yahoo at the bouncy gym
    yippee driving the Bay's battery operated cars and riding ponies at the pumpkin patch
    yapping Asher aiming to herd little ones walking, strollers pushing & baby-cars driving
    young moms and dads and God's wisdom that mommies and daddies are not usually 50+
    yelling "OMA!" with little legs running as fast as they could toward me at the airport
    "yes" to most every request, as Oma's and Opi's do, with overwhelming joy and gratitude
