Well I didn't intent to blog today, but then I remembered something I was thinking about at work as I endlessly vacuumed & I thought I'd share. I has thinking about my kids, and something I told one of the guys at work one night after I had had Jaxon. He has a little girl and we were talking about how fun having #2 is and how he was looking forward to that one day. I love it! Having 2 kiddos has been really great, but I had to issue Chris a warning in our conversation....having 2 is fun, but also a bit heartbreaking. It is heartbreaking because you know how fast it all goes by. When our first little baby came into our home she was a tough one, and every new thing was anticipated! She was growing and changing, and with her tough personality at that age we were ready to move on to the next step. And when Jaxon was born and as he's grown I have a different attitude because I know where it is going. He will grow and change and in minutes I'll be looking at a little boy about to turn 5 just like I'm seeing Daaelynn now- and it breaks my heart. I'm often telling her to stop growing these days. Her response is usually something like " But Mom I have to grow up and be a momma like you!" :( TEARS! With Jaxon I'm trying to absorb it all and not look so much forward to the next stepping stone, but just enjoy where we are now. I think that goes for life in general enjoying where you are in the present. I will forever be grateful to my Heavenly Father for giving me my children and trusting them to me. I'm trying harder each day to be a mother they will always look to with love and trust. I want to bring the spirit into my home and always give my children a firm foundation. There is a saying that goes- Give your children wings to fly, and roots to come home to. I'm working on the roots right now, but that have to wait for their wings because I'm not ready!!!! Being a mom is not easy, but it has brought me so much joy. I commend all you moms out there & wish you a happy Mother's day :D
My blessings that made me a Momma :D
