Thought this was soooo sweet

*Just for this morning, I am going to step over
the laundry, and pick you up and take you t o the park to play.

*Just for this morning, I will leave the dishes
in the sink, and let you teach me how to put that puzzle of yours together.

*Just for this afternoon, I will unplug the telephone and keep the computer off, and sit with you in the backyard and blow bubbles.

*Just for this afternoon, I will not yell once, not even a tiny grumble when you scream and whine for the ice cream truck and I will buy you one if he comes by.

*Just for this afternoon, I won't worry about what you are going to be when you grow up, or second guessevery decision I have made where you are concerned..

*Just for this afternoon, I will let you help me bake cookies, and I won't stand over you trying to fix them.

*Just for this afternoon, I will take us to McDonald's and buy us both a Happy Meal so you can have both toys.

*Just for this evening, I will hold you in my arms and tell you a story about how you were born and how much I ;love you.

*Just for this evening, I will let you splash in the tub and not get angry.

*Just for this evening, I will let you stay up late while we sit on the porch and count all the stars.

*Just for this evening, I will snuggle beside you for hours, and miss my favorite TV shows.

*Just for this evening when I run my finger through your hair as you pray, I will simply be grateful that God
has given me the greatest gift ever given.

*I will think about the mothers And fathers who are searching for their missing children, the mothers a nd fathers who are visiting their children's graves instead of their bedrooms, and mothers and fathers who are in hospital rooms watching their children suffer senselessly, and screaming inside that they can't handle it anymore.

*And when I kiss you good night I will hold you a little tighter, a little longer. It is then, that I will thankGod for you, and ask Him for nothing, except one more day..............

Wow its been a while

Well now that the kids are a little older. Life has been full of adventure. We are doing a lot more these days. Playing in the back yard is our favorite thing these days. Swimming, swinging and twirling. We recently took the kids to the Childrens Museum. Blaine went crazy we couldn't keep up. Gracie just took it all in and Collin pretty much clung to Daddy. It is so much fun listening to them TRY to talk, and learn so many new things. We also went to the Wild animal experience just last weekend. Gracie enjoyed it most. And everything was a Cat to her. Don't have much time for a long update, But things are great and Exciting. here are picture of the past few months.
