loads of dirty clothes, piles of stinky diapers, stains, 2 a.m. wake up calls, stretch marks, little hands that seem to be into everything, sweet potatoes spit in my face, water splashed all over the room, teething, whiny cries, exhaustion . . . all the things we didn't think we would ever get to experience!! I am so thankful for our little miracles that God blessed us with. Every day they give me lots of smiles, laughs, squeals, and lots of snuggles and love. And I am reminded of what special blessings they are - our two little blessings sent from above. How amazing they are and I am truly thankful.
And for a husband that has walked through it all with me. I'm thankful that Addyson and Braden have a daddy willing to let them soak him so they can have fun in the bathtub and who will play with them after a long day of work until he is totally exhausted.
Someone to listen to the highlights and low points of my day - who else would also get so excited about poop, spit up, and the fact that Braden can pull himself a couple inches. I am truly blessed - thank you Lord!"Your Love, O Lord, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies.
Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the great deep. How priceless is your unfailing love!"
from Psalm 36
We wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving and pray that you enjoy the many blessings God has given you!!
Happy Thanksgiving to your family too! So glad you are able to see the blessings in the craziness. Motherhood is great, isn't it?
