A moment to myself

I had such great intentions today. I cleaned #1 and #2's room first thing in the morning. I was gonna get the rest of the house done during nap time. Then I made one huge mistake. I read my friend, Christine's blog (http://collinsincorona.blogspot.com/ ) I read her current one and then I thought, "wow she has posted 301 blogs. I wonder what her first one said" I went to the kitchen brewed a pot of coffee and sat down to read. Tears were streaming down my face because she and I have had similar experiences when it comes to our kids (we have been prego just about all 3 times together, her first she found out she was pregnant the day I was having Aiden) I feel like I can learn so much from her, she is an amazing mom and I would recommend checking out her blogs....


OK so the point of this is just how fast life passes us by. One min. I am freaking out because I'm about to give birth to my FIRST child and I don't know how I'm gonna do it. I remember thinking my life was OVER. Now here I am 4 years later with 3 amazing boys. I am so overwhelmed with emotions right now. I don't even know how to get my words out without rambling sounding like a drunk woman. I am so amazingly blessed. How awesome is it that God choose ME to be these boys moms? And one day (once the economy is better and my marriage is rock solid) I pray the Lord blessed me with a little girl!!




So this is what I gave up today to spend some reflection time:

A very messy living room-

A very messy kitchen complete with lunch still left out from over an hour ago

The "sitting reading" room- Again, a MESS!

(p.s. I cant wait to get that back wall painted!!)

All this mess because of 3 little monkeys who I so very very much
