Mother's Day

Well today was Mother's Day, and while I had a great time spending the day with my boys, I realized that no matter how hard I try I tend to get aggravated with my boys. Then I think that I have friends who no matter what they have tried can't get pregnant, or worse have lost babies.

The thought of not having my boys is terrifying for me, I look at women I know who have lost babies at birth, and I can't imagine how I would survive that. I have always thought of myself as a strong person, but when I think of my friends who have had great loss in their life, and I realize that I am not that strong.

So I have decided I need to work on my patience, my faith, and my heart. I need to learn to appreciate my kids and my husband, and my family. I need to learn to be strong. So that is my Mother's Day wish for me, yes it is selfish but it is what I need!

Happy Mother's Day to all us moms out there, whether we are holding our babies, holding out hope, or holding on to memories. May your day be blessed!

Bad Blogger of the Year Award

So I am officially a bad blogger.  I can't believe it has be over 2 months since I last posted.  Sad to say not much in my neck of the woods has changed.  The boys are getting bigger I swear by the minute and at any moment I am afraid J will officially be able to climb out of the crib, I had hoped we would make it till 2 in the crib but no such luck I am afraid.  R started T-Ball about a month ago and his first game was last Friday night, I hope to post some pictures tonight.  It was so cute.  He has another game tomorrow and is excited.  It is nice to see him excited about a sport.

I am also contemplating putting the boys in the same room, that would leave our 3rd bedroom for guest/office/playroom.  It will be quite an undertaking but one I really want to make as I am tired of all the toys and the computer in the living room plus it will be nice if we have guest if they don't have to sleep in the living room.  We shall see.

Let's see what else is going on, Oh there is a very important giveaway going on on MckMama's Blog right now, if you are wanting to both do something wonderful and maybe win and IPad please check it out.  On here last IPad giveaway she raised 30,000 for Compassion Ministries.  If you aren't familiar with Compassion Ministries please check out their site.  They are a great program that helps children around the world.

Well that is about it for me right now.  Like I said I hope to post some pics of the boys tonight so stay tuned!
