Today is Sunday July 31, and here I sit in my kitchen at 8:40 am watching my 2 year old, wander around the house, my girls are playing in the next room oh so sweetly... and this is one of those great moments where I can not help but sit here and love my life for the wonderful blessings I have.
My 3 great children.. who without them my life would never be complete... and as they grow up ever so fast, I truly treasure even the screaming and fighting between them because I know all to soon, they will be out on their own.
My darling daughter Haley is already 8, she starts 3rd grade in a few weeks, and I swear it hasn't been that long since she was a mischievous toddler, and not she's growing up into this beautiful girl.
My sweet Lillian is already 4, and growing up way faster them she should , I just don't know where all the time is going. She's going to school this fall ( sniff,sniff) and I am so proud of all her accomplishments.
My dear Zachery, my baby is 2... He's into everything, drives me crazy, but at the end of the day I can't think of anything better then his first thing in the morning cuddles, he just can't do without.
I think back to this song often because it has a lot of truth behind it.
It's called your going to miss this... and it's sung by trace Adkins.
I am also very thankful for the man I married... as much as he can drive me nuts, I am still madly in love with him, and truly couldn't imagine my life with out him in it. He works hard so I can be home with the kids... yes I do have a daycare... so I work but I can honestly say I am the one raising my children.. instead of someone else.
Next up I would have to say I married into one of the best families and I love them all very dearly. I may not be close to my own family but for the last 10 years they welcomed me with open arms... and are all so loving.
Over all : Yes Times can be rough, but I can honestly say I LOVE MY LIFE!

Perfectly put. I love kiddo cuddles too. :)
Yep, well stated. The day-to-day life can become difficult or mundane, but if we pause to think of the blessings, it's amazing. Nothing better than a hug from a precious child of your own - my nearly 12-year-old son still gives the sweetest hugs.
I'm your newest follower from the blog hop and would love a follow back - thanks.
Hugs,
Mary
