Just in time for Halloween



I wonder how we have come this far
To have your teeth fall out in the car,
Driving down the road today
I have a hole in my teeth you say
Daddy says leave it alone
We see a surprise when we get home.
A little baby tooth on the floor of the van
And a jack o lantern smile from Moms little man.

Second time around



My "baby' is getting big. Yesterday when we were leaving for church I snapped the first picture of Logan he looked so old.... no longer like the little guy who would say " I hold you Mom when he wanted to be picked up" and tonight he had his gymnastics recital...again a reminder that he is no longer my little baby. It is sad when they grow up. I want them to grow but that childlike innocence is so great. I hate to think that is going to go away. Logan starts preschool next week I swear it was just yesterday I was sitting beside the toilet sick as a dog from being pregnant with him and now he is starting preschool. I think this is why people have more because you think NO way until they get to be this age and they go dont need you so much anymore and you miss them. You even kinda forget how bad being pregnant is well almost...

So help me if you can I got to get back.......




To the house at Pooh Corner by 1:00. Logan and Rob wanted to wear these costumes all weekend long. They wanted to be "characters" . You know what they say if you cant beat them join em..Can you think of anything better to be doing on a hot August day. Youd be surpised theres so much to be done..Count all the bees in the hive, chase all the clouds in the sky. Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh.

What could of been

As me and my friend Karla were spending a delightful afternoon on some wonderfully designed well ventilated benches at the children Hospital I heard myself say these words " I never thought I wanted to but I am was born to be a Mom. All you have to do is love your kids and spend time with them." Later as I was driving home it hit me. That's it... just love them . I love Rob and Logan the ghost or dinosaur or even Logie for that matter. I am so blessed to have two healthy kids. I was visiting a friend at the childrens hospital their boy was born with Downs Syndrome it was a painful reminder of what could of been. The ironic thing is I didnt do anything to deserve to be the Mom of Rob and Logan but I was chosen. I never knew what unconditional love was until they came along. My heart is heavy tonight for my friend and her new addition. I am also overwhelmed with the thought that they are only ours for a little while. I was born to be a Mom. Thanks Karla for the conversation next time you want to hang out in the halls of the hospital you know who to call. My heart is full tonight.
