precious little nuggets

"Little nugget" has become a term of endearment that I've been calling people lately. I have quite a few little nuggests near and dear to my heart and wanted to share them with you...


Hadley Tate-- the child of my dreams. Never before have I seem such a precious being nor imagined I could love a child as much as her. Her personality mimicks Lauren and is so curious and downright hilarious. I'm looking forward to the second of many Heuber children to be born in May.

The Moores and McGuirt kids-- I feel like I am one of their family, especially with the Moore's. I've known these boys for the past five years and love them all so much. I've watched them all grow and change and their personalities resemble those of their parents.

Hadley, Kate and Jack-- I spent a week with them at the beach a few summers ago and just love them. They live in Michigan so I don't see them often but we are hoping to have another beach trip this summer!

Benguina-- the first girl I talked to when I got off the bus in Dar es Salaam. She didn't speak a word of english but followed me around all day like a little duckling.

Mary-- another girl from Dar es Salaam who had the most contagious joy. She laughed and smiled at everything and was beautiful.
