She is my baby.
She is the triplet that I named and oddly enough, she is the child most like me when I was a child.
She loves to help me do things around the house. She will do anything, she just loves to be needed.
When she was little~ she said words like bikit for biscuit. Oh, how I miss those days...
She is funny.
She is extremely passionate.
When one of the other kids upsets her, she turns into the Incredible Hulk! One time she and Kennedy were riding in the backseat of Wes' truck. Kennedy apparently made her mad and Wes heard all these noises coming from the back seat. He looked in the rear view mirror and all he could see was Kennedy crying and her hair was all disheveled. He looked over at McLaine and she was leaning on her elbow just looking out the window enjoying the view. When she knew Wes was looking at her she looked over at Kennedy with a confused look on her face and just shrugged her shoulders like she had NO IDEA why Kennedy was crying. She is like a ninja.
She loves to read.
She is a great singer.
When she was just a few months old she had a strangulated toe. A string from her jammies got wrapped around her toe as she was sleeping. When I got her up to feed her, her toe looked like a cheery was stuck to the end of it. We had to rush her to the hospital and Wes was so worried he ran into the emergency room DEMANDING that they see her IMMEDIATELY. "She is a triplet", he said urgently, "if she loses her toe she will never be able to wear flip flops like her sisters!!!!" The nurses were either compassionate or scared of him because they took us right back. I am proud to report, she wears flip flops and has all 10 toes. (thanks to her dad!)
She has taught herself how to play the piano and will practice for hours.
She says the most beautiful heart-felt prayers. She will being tears to your eyes.
She loves this blue blanket that her Aunt LauraLee made for her. I don't think she has ever slept a night without it. It is now a small, frayed piece of fabric but she loves it and it brings her comfort. I love this about her.
She is really fast. I am talking Olympic gold medal fast or quite possibly multiple police-car-chase-fast.
She is kind... When she was in school during 1st grade she used to carry a girls lunch tray because the girl used a walker and couldn't do it herself. Then McLaine would get back in line to get her own lunch. She never told me she did this, she just did it because she is compassionate.
She will forever be my baby. I love her...
I think I will keep her here with me...FOREVER!
