"Thank you Lord ...Many are the blessings that You've given to me..."

How I love being a mommy. Certainly didn't think I would ever be saying those words out loud let alone think it. People from my past also stated that they could never see me as a mommy. Well, look at me now!

It's amazing the feeling that builds up inside ( No I am not referring to milk let-down) once you look at your child. When you stare at them as they sleep while hoping they don't wake up or in the case of Toddler J having to march into her room at midnight to put her Pj's back on because she insists on being free. 

 

The heart-melting moment when your child tells you that they love you, when she wants to share everything with you ( even that wet cookie) or wants you to participate in everything she does. Then there is the earth shattering moment of Baby C simply looking at you and smiling or reaching for you in comfort. 

Sure the diaper counts have increased twofold, the noises in the house have increased exponentially but at the end of a crazy day and the kids are asleep all I can do is smile or tear up ( those hormones tend to linger I tell you ) and thank God for them.
