Current mood: happy
Can you believe it? I'm 23!! Time has flown by. Once i turned 20, the years started rolling by. I'm getting old..lol, but that's okay because along with age comes the wisdom (for some people). Thank you to everyone who wished me a Happy Birthday, i really appreciate it. My day went well and hopefully i'll have many more b-days to come...

I have never been the type to go up to a stranger and say hi. I've always been the person to say hi after i'm spoken to, and it's never hi (enter conversation here). It has always been hi (walk away quickly). I've been shy as long as i can remember. When i was in first grade, i rarely talked in school so they thought i was slow. We had two reading groups, the lower reading group and the higher reading group. I dont remember how they picked who was in what group but somehow i was in the lower reading group. We had these skimpy little books. Most people in my group couldnt read. I, on the other hand, could read very well. I guess my teacher didnt know that. I taught everyone in my group how to read. My teacher saw that, they tested me and they found out i could read better than everyone in my class. I know, long story but that's just one exapmple of how my shyness held me back. I've always been really scared to talk to people and let them know who Tierra really is. I think i'll take a little time and tell y'all who Tierra is....
So...I said some stuff about Jacobe and some stuff about Kalen, but what about the two in the middle? Donovan (Donnie) and Zaire (Zae) are the little devils. They are a mess. Those little boys are so adorable.
Donovan is the king of stubborn people. If that kid doesnt want to do something, he wont do it. He's also the smartest out of the bunch. Donnie asks some really intelligent questions for a three year old. I love that about him. It's funny to hear him talk because right now he talks with a lisp. Cobe and Donnie play well together sometimes. Other times, Donnie will get on Cobe's nerves so much Jacobe will hit him with all he has. Then comes the screaming. Donovan has a strong pair of lungs....that kid will be a singer oneday. Along with him, will be his little brother Zaire.
Zaire is two years old. He's the cuddler of the group. It's not wise to get on Zae's bad side because he too has a strong set of lungs. Zaire loves to smile. He also has a fascination with his baby brother's head. He'll rub it, sit on it, smush, etc. Kalen stays away as much as possible. Zae is Jacobe's baby. Cobe's always trying to pick him up and treat him like a baby (which he kinda still is). Zaire will be content with sucking his binky, playing with his ear, and sitting in my lap. He's such a cute little kid. He's just starting to talk where people can understand him and some of the stuff he says are not always what you expect out of a 2yr old...lol.
Those are my babies. My two little devils who are always getting into something. There are times when all four of them try to sit on my lap at the same time...impossible. I try to divide my time evenly with them. Donovan and Zaire will always have a special place in my heart just like their brothers.

As you all know, I love my nephews very much. They say you're not suppose to have favorites, but i do. Jacobe, my oldest nephew, has always been my favorite nephew. From the first time i held him up until now, Jacobe and I have had a special connection. He can't stay away from me and i can't stay away from him for too long. I believe leaving Jacobe will be the hardest part about leaving in August. He's such a cute 5 yr old kid. He's always asking me questions and he knows when he's getting on my nerves because he'll ask, 'are you busy?' I'll say yeah and he'll stop with the questions for a while. He was born when i was 17 yrs old and while i held him for the first time in the hospital room, I told him I would always be there for him. I plan to keep that promise. Even though i'm 8 hrs away, all that kid has to do is call me and say, 'Auntie i need you,' and i'm there. Jacobe knows how special he is to me and hopefully I'll always have a special place in his heart too.
