Heaven-sent

I've told all three of our little precious babies that before they came out of my tummy, they were up in heaven playing with the angels.  So, it's fun to hear what they have to say before speech capabilities and even afterwards when I ask them about what they used to do when they lived up there.

Here's Brandon's take on it:




Did you know the fan could be so interesting?  It is mesmerizing.

Fingers, yum!

Mommy can be funny

Mohawk in the makin'.  Watch out ladies, cause you know I'm bad.

Practical Angels

I'll admit it, there was about a 2-week period I was ready to send my children back to where they came from. It seemed the arguing, fighting, cattiness, kicking, biting, hair-pulling, whining, not-sleeping and crankiness would never end. But thankfully, the good Lord stepped in and decided to give me a sabbatical in real tough kid-raising by transforming our children into practical angels. I'm sure ALL the work was done on them, not me or my attitude by any means; regardless they have been pure joys to be around.

I know, I'm not supposed to say anything, much less write it out, for fear of jinxing the good-behavior streak working on our behalf but, too many times I feel I write about how they're not behaving the way they should. Their actions have been so remarkably different, I feel a lovingly/motherly duty to not only praise them in person (which I have been doing A LOT), but to also write it down for the Blog Book.

So, you heard it straight from the horse's mouth: our children have been marvelous little creatures to be around and I've enjoyed every minute with them. Even when one of them gets a little sideways, I seem to have crazy amounts of patience to deal with it and help them work through it. Like I said, I'm sure it's all them, and nothing was being worked on in my heart.

I know my friends and family members sure heard enough of my mouth during our rough patch and I'm sure a majority of them were praying for my sanity and our kid's well-being. Whatever the answer, because I'll truly never know the extent of my loved ones' prayers for my family, I am thankful.

And I am reminded: "We know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God..." Romans 8:28 NLT
