Happy Birthday Angels

Five years ago, I had the most wonderful experience (yes i can say that NOW!!!)giving birth to my angels. The last five years have really taught me so many lessons. I learned that I can live at the hospital and still be a mom and survive (thanks to so much help). I learned that pollution is very bad and not to take a green air day for granted. Health is everything and the hardest thing for a mother is to watch her sick child suffer and only wish I could go through it instead. Feeling left out is not always a bad thing (yes, my boys love playing with each other and sometimes mom is NOT welcome). Learning that life does happen fast and watching my babies grow up with knowing that this experience and stage will not be repeated wants me to keep them little as long as possible. AND THE BEST THING I JUST LEARNED TODAY!!!!! Caleb does learn by example (thanks Dave) and teaches his brother how to snore properly.

New Year 2010

The new year has officially arrived.
Kids are back into school and starting to get back into a positive routine. As each year comes to a close i reflect on that year and what took place in my life. First thing i must say is I am soooo glad 2009 is over with. Last year was a challenging year from some health problems to family problems. But last year was filled with HIGH's (david coming home) to the Lowest of lows (personal issues).
This year my goal is not to focus on the problems of last year but to leave those behind. This year is already looking positive due to me graduating with my Bachelor's Degree in June. I am so looking forward to that huge event in my life. Also, in 2010 Colten will get his drivers permit, finish 9th grade and become an official High Schooler. While my Coby will finish 6th grade and move onto Jr. High. I cant believe how old my kids are getting. Thinking back to when Colten was a baby, I thought his life would go by slow and now I cant believe how quickly he is growing up. So my resolution is to spend more quality time with each of my children because before I know it, they will be out of the house.
Live, Laugh, and Love is the motto I am focusing this year on.
2010 Here we come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
