It's Amazing...

It's amazing what a good night's sleep will do for a person.

It's amazing how our kids grow up so so fast.

It's amazing how much love I feel, even when the kids are screaming, because the fact is, my kids are screaming. My kids. My kids that I was able to bear in my womb, nurse, cuddle, snuggle, and raise. My kids. I know that they don't come to everyone this way, and that is ok. The fact remains, they are our kids and we get to cherish that.

It's amazing that I am married to the most wonderful husband who will put me to bed with the boys (at 8:30 PM), clean the kitchen, start a load of laundry, put away all of the groceries from the day and not complain, even when he is exhausted as well.

It's amazing that my to-do list is longer then I can actually accomplish in one day, yet I feel energized to do it and to at least try and accomplish something.

It's amazing that although I feel like the most blessed person in the world right now, there are blessings that I am not even aware of.

It's also amazing that acting happy actually makes you happier. :)

I think I'll take that last line as advice and put it to the test! Thanks! (PS I've been totally thinking about you because I think we're going to get a BOB stroller and I always remember you telling me they were the best, so, I've been thinking about you and your cute little guys :)
