All is Well

Emma reading her "email"...

"Dear Mama, Thank you for the hugs and kisses. Thank you for the singing and the good dreams. I love my Mama. I love my brother Ben, he is so handsome. He is a good boy. I love my Papa. I love Jesus."

*huge sigh* All is well.

After 6 months~ TINEWTF

Sometimes it takes something momentous to happen to return to the long ignored blog.  

Something happened tonight that I never ever want to forget and so here I am.

Life with twin 3 year olds is tough.  I will never sugar coat it.

Our days are full of time outs, screaming, teasing, fighting, hitting, and there are days where I have to go in my dark bedroom and cry.

Today was one of those days.

Then with just a few words, my sweet girl made everything all better.

She had a short nap today and so had a hard time falling asleep tonight.  I was annoyed because I could hear her little feet shuffling towards me AGAIN and I just sat there 

until she came to me and laid her head on my arm.

"Mama, I love you.

You are a pretty Mama.

You are a good Mama.

YOU ARE THE ONLY MAMA WE WANT."

And suddenly all I want to do is hug her little body so tightly and never let go. 

We sit like that for a few minutes while I quietly cry and thank Heavenly Father for this moment and then I carry her back to bed where she quickly falls asleep.

All is right in my world again.

So Long 2012!

Do you see the date?  One day down on my biggest and best New Years Resolution~

*I resolve to no longer ignore this little family blog*

Now don't expect daily posts but I resolve to blog once a week 

sort of a "week in review" type of thing.

This is important to me and my family.

So I resolve to

*share pictures

*share funny stories

*share my family!

Here is to a happy, healthy, and peaceful new year!
