thanks to Adam for the pictures...he's really getting better at using my camera ;)The honest truth is that EVERY day is Mother's Day around here. These little boys, who bring me more joy than I could have imagined, are pretty open with their love and affection and appreciation.
{Now, I'm sure that in about ten years I'll NEED at least one day when they are forced to tell me that they love me...teenage boys are a little less free and open with their feelings!}
Can I just say publicly that I am SO thankful to my Father in Heaven for these boys. I'm so very blessed that I was able to carry them in my own womb, that they are healthy and happy, and strong. I love to watch the little things that they do, that remind me of my sweet husband or my darling brothers or my wonderful dad. I love the men in my life, and that includes these little men. I am so very blessed. So very blessed.
Aidan's Mother's Day gift to me was to drop an entire (unopened) jar of Queso on the floor just as we were leaving for Church. Luckily he wasn't hurt, but there was glass everywhere. I share this with you in case you think I was asserting that my life is perfect. Boy howdy, it sure isn't. But I LOVE that every day I get to live it. :)
**A little edit...I can't stop staring at these photos. I am so head-over-heels in love. Look at what my dearly beloved and I have made! Oh man, we need to have lots more kids. We just make 'em so darn cute. It's our gift to the world....darn cute kids. :)
