In a Puddle

That's where my heart's been lately.
Thanks to my kids.

It's a good thing.Brookie.
Giving me a hug.
At her school.
In front of friends.
And other parents even.

That is BIG.Jakie.
Reaching for a tall light:
Hey, I'm growing!
I used to have to stand on my toes to turn this on.
Now I can do it flat-footed!

He wants to grow so BADLY.Jobie.
Standing up on the counter:
Wook Mommy.
I'm tawer than you.
Me: Yes, you are.
Some day you really will be taller than Mommy.
Jobie: But I don't want to be tawer than you!
Me: Why not?
Jobie: Because I want you to always be my Momma!

Oh, Jobie.
No worries there.
I could never stop being your momma.Ezzie.
Writing sweet, sweet things at school.I can't think of much that a momma would love to hear more.A puddle.
I'm tellin' ya.

Oh, Yes

You can bet this little beauty is going on the fridge.
So grateful to the little girl in my VBS class
who made this for me.
Wow!
It's astonishing how well she knows me.
After only 5 days.

Now anytime any of my kids complain or whine
about something I tell them.
I will point to this card.
And remind them.

Good things about me:
Everything!
Bad things about me:
Nothing!

Wonder if I can convince Ryan of this too.
Things would run so much smoother in our house
if we would all cooperate...
And agree with this.

Hey, a girl can dream...
