I am not sure if I am ready for all of my kids to be growing up. This morning the neighbor, who also has 3 kids, took all 3 of mine to VBS at their church. It is a strange, empty, and quiet morning in my home, (besides the whining of our dog, who also doesnt know what to do with ALL of the kids gone) and I am not quite sure what to do with myself!
It seems like just last week that i had 3 kids in diapers, was breaking one to a sippy cup from a bottle so I didnt have 2 on bottles, and not getting anywhere close to a full nights sleep! Where has all the time gone. I remember when Princess was 2, The Boy was 1, and we brought home the baby # 3 Sassafrass...I wasnt sure I was capable of the life God had given me. Everything seemed hard, I was completly exausted, the piles of laundry seemed insurmoutable, and I thought the sleepless nights would never end! That was only 3 short years ago.
Now I look back on those days and wonder where has all the time gone! I can not believe that "those" days...the ones that seemed as if time was standing still are gone, and now I have 3 big kids who are growing up way to fast.
So here I sit today wondering what to do with myself...the laundry is done, I had a full nights sleep, the house is clean, the dishes are done...such a change from just a few short years ago.
I am so very thankfull to God that He has blessed me with such a full and rewarding life, I know that each season will come and will have its own things that seem to be to hard to conquer, but I am so thankfull that I have God to help me as I rasie His precious gifts to me!
They came bearing Hello Kitty presents...this is Sassafrass' newest obsession.
These birthday posts are all from earlier this year, but I am anxious to get some fun posts up so i decided birthdays with grandparents would be a fun thing to do! Hope you enjoy
