A rare moment

It seems lately that my boys have really become better friends. It makes being a mom SO rewarding for those few moments where everything is going smoothly. I know that I blog about my boys a lot, but life is so much better with them. Shaune comes home from work, we eat dinner, the boys rough around, and then it's bedtime. Nothing spectacular, just a daily reminder of how good life is and He who has given it all to us simply because He wants us to be happy...the same thing I want for my own children. It is amazing how being a parent has helped me have a better understanding of God's love for me (and everyone really). How thankful I am to be a mother to these two beautiful, busy little boys.

Thanks for the reminder about Motherhood being great. I had forgotten with Abby not going to bed until 10:45 this evening. Sigh...

I agree. I love, love, love a simple and happy life.
Being a wife and mom is the best. Bar none!

Isn't being a mother of boys just the best!? I think so...being a mom of a little princess is pretty great too! :) I totally agree with you. It really puts things into perspective when you think about the love we feel for our children and what we would lay down for them. I am also so very grateful to my Father in heaven for all that he gives to me. Thanks for the little reminder. :)

Court...thank you so much for being so kind & bringing me my package today. That meant so much to me that you would take the time to drive it over to me, when you easily could have just called & told my lazy bones to come pick it up. But no, you have to be the sweetest, most giving person, & bring it to me. I love you..

Aren't boys the best? And cuddles from them couldn't be sweeter:) By the way, you look so pretty in this picture! I hope Shawn was taking you out for a night on the town--otherwise, he was missing out!

Hi Courtney,

Thanks for dropping by my little blog and leaving the kind words. Your boys look like they have a fantastic mother!

I look forward to any successful toddler moments you would like to share... most of my followers are the strong silent type!
