My Sunshine

Isabel at three days old.

I have a two year old niece and she is so beautiful. I live with my parents and my sister and my niece live with us too. My sister is in the process of separating with her husband, it's sad but nothing else could be done.

My niece's name is Isabel, and I'm very proud to say that I helped pick her name out. She also looks a lot like me. We have the same high forehead, same big brown eyes and my Mom says she looks just like me when I was a baby.

When we go out to the store, everyone thinks she's my daughter. I think it's cute. I tell my Mom that I had my daughter without having to suffer through the painful childbirth. Now I will admit Isabel is a bit spoiled. She is the only daughter so the only niece for both sides of the family as well as the only granddaughter. It's hilarious the things she gets....well sometimes.

Anyways now that she is bigger, she keeps trying to use my make-up and my perfume. She's even walking around in my shoes and tries to copy everything I do. She always goes to my room to watch TV with me or sits with me while I'm on the computer and we play games together and although she does try my patience sometimes, I really really love her and there's nothing that I love more then to hear her laughter and see her smiling eyes.

She is my ray of sunshine...I hope everyone can find theirs.
