First and foremost I am a Mother, a mother who cares deeply about her children. I have been blessed to say this. I have two young sons as of this writing but someday I may want more. A little Princess perhaps, or a Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella all wrapped into one.
I start this blog with a purpose, a purpose of providing you with a heartfelt journey of raising two young, feisty boys who are my life. My everything.
- My Joy
- My Strength
- My Sunshine
- My Gain
- My Focus
- My Love
They know no boundaries of what it means to love unconditionally. They just do. At an age of development when little things they are experiencing are becoming more than an experience, they need guidance and structure. They need to be allowed to have fun, enjoy these precious days and I intend on giving it to them, so that one day, one day when they look back they will say, "I had so much fun at that age sometimes I wish I could go back." Mom was awesome, is awesome!
Just like today when I think of my Mom, I think to myself, I love you Mom your awesome. You are and was the best. I want them to say that if they had to do it all over again and had to choose their Mom, they'd choose me. I know I'd definitely choose my Mom. I wouldn't change a thing.
Well I might change a few things but it wouldn't be anything that had to do with Mom. I might like to have pizza a little more often or spaghetti o's more frequently, just because, just because when I was a kid that's those dinners and suppers that were the best. Oh and those peanut butter sandwiches, put a little more jelly on there Mom. Evidently she thought I was sweet enough and so do my boys today. Can a gurl get some more kool-aid please.
I did say please too
I teach my boys to say please and thank you. It really goes without saying. I love it when a friend pops in with a surprise or we visit the bank and the teller gives them a lollipop. Their eyes light up and automatically they know to say thank you. Not because I taught them this early on but because they truly appreciate the gesture of receiving.
And that brings me to this blog
I want to have a place to share with you the importance of what a mommy is to me. What it means being a Mom. The pleasures, the pain, the joy, the insane. The growth spurts, the setbacks, the happiness and hurts.
Come with me and enjoy this journey of love and family of being the Mom.
