Destiny, Kayla, & Taylor

Destiny (11), Kayla (8), and Taylor (7) are 3 of my favorite kids.  They are SO cute-- very silly, fun, and smart. The first time I met them, they insisted on dancing for me (they have coordinated several dances) and giggled through the whole thing.  Then they wouldn't let me leave until each one got about 10 hugs.  They have been exposed to lots more than they should have at their young ages and have lived chaotic lives.  They've spent the last year living with their grandmother (not a great situation to say the least) waiting for their mom to get clean and sober.  They were just returned home to their mom a couple of weeks ago.  The girls are thrilled to be home.  Their mom was embarrassed that their lists were so long.  I'm working with their mom to leave the things that they want the most and cut out the other things, but for now, here are their lists:
