Thankfulness - Day 3

I am thankful to have 2 amazing sweet boys that call me momma! They stole my heart the moment I laid eyes on them!  It is amazing how much you could love someone so much!!  I am thankful that God has entrusted me to love, cherish and raise these 2 precious boys!  He gave me an amazing husband to help me in this journey called parenthood.

Is it always perfect? NO
Is it always easy? Um, NO!
Is it challenging? YES
Is it rewarding?  Most Definitely
Would I trade it for anything? NO!!

Having 2 boys is very interesting to say the least! There is never a dull moment in my life with these 2! They have more energy than I can even describe, they love each other and seem to dislike each other all the time.  It is like a switch with them, but I am sure it is the same way with all siblings.  I always say its like a love/hate relationship.  But I know that deep down they love each other!

Colton, my first born!  He is such a sweet, loving, compassionate, funny, stubborn, smart, outgoing child!  He knows what he wants! He is very talented and loves to draw.  I pray that he continues to follow this gift that God has given him and see where it leads him! He is full of energy from the moment his eyes open in the morning till the moment they close at night!  He is his mother's child :)!! It amazes/(scares) me to see so much of me in him!! He has an infectious smile and demeanor!  He has brought so much love and joy to my life! 

Pierce, my baby boy!  He is my sweet, loving, cuddly, crazy, bug loving, outside loving, clown child! He is most definitely his daddy's child!  He looks just like him and most of the time acts like him (not that that is a bad thing!) He loves to be the clown and make all kind of crazy faces and expressions.  He is my laid back, go with the flow child.  He is a smart child but would rather be the clown (help me now)! He would rather be outside gathering lizards, frogs, tadpoles (any kind of creature) than be inside any day of the week!!

I am so thankful for all of the moments that parenthood has sent me through!  I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world!  There will always be hard times and will always be bad times, but the good, loving, happy times always out number those times!!  These 2 boys have brought more love and joy to my life than I can describe!  Thank you Lord for trusting me and allowing me to be called momma by the 2 best boys in the world!!
