Mother's Day 2008

I woke up this morning to my two precious boys and my wonderful husband bringing me homemade Mother's Day cards and hugs. It was so heartwarming to hear my 3 year old say "Happy Mother's Day Mommy" over and over again. Kevin made a delicious breakfast of french toast for me, and then we got ready and went to church. Isaac sat with us for part of the service, and every time Mother's Day was mentioned, he turned to me and said "Happy Mother's Day Mommy" and gave me a hug. It was so precious! He was getting restless though, so Kevin brought him to the nursery before the preacher started the sermon. After church we had lunch, I got to take a nap, and then we went to my mom's house. Michael and Jennifer fixed steak and baked potatoes for everyone, and we all had a great time talking and eating. Isaac attempted to write his first word, too. POP. His "P"s came out looking like "T"s, but it was a good first try, and he knew what he wanted to write and how to spell it. I am so proud of him! It was a beautiful Mother's Day, and I will treasure the memories I made today. I am so blessed.

Growing Up SO Fast!

Ethan is growing up so fast! We were playing outside today and he climbed all the way up the ladder on the swingset by himself! I was in shock! I can't believe my baby is getting so big. Isaac is growing up fast too. Tonight as I was tucking him in, we had a conversation about God. I was trying to explain to him that when he prays, he is talking to God and that he can tell God anything. He told me that God is up in the sky. Then he said "God is going to come to our house". I explained to him that God loves him so much. Then he said his prayer. He is so sweet. I am so thankful for my children. They truly are the sunshine to every day. I am so blessed.
