My life right now is hectic & fun & true & tiring & this is the only time I will get to live it.
You see, they grow up & they talk back & they make friends that are cooler than me.
I am told there will be a day when they go off to college & I don't see their faces everyday.
I am told that one day I may not hear their voices everyday.
I am told that one day the house may be quiet & clean.
I am told that I will look back on these moments & smile.
I thought one morning that there will be a time when I do not wake them up & my voice is not the first one they hear & the last one they hear at night. Who will remind them to pray for . . . ?
I saw a picture of a momma holding her new baby, her first baby, & thought what a beautiful moment. I have had 4 of those moments of my own & love watching my sisters moments. You look at the little thing & you know that you would die for that baby. You would give anything for that little thing.
Yes, if you saw me out & about today you could have gotten tired watching - I was on a roll. You may have been the person that asked if I had any more & then gawked when I said he was the youngest of 4. Crazy - YES! You see, my hubby & I are crazy in love & every once in awhile we are blessed with a bundle of joy. Will we have more bundles? Probably not. Are we crazy? If that means living in the plans of a sovereign God then Yes we are the craziest.
The days are tiring & I am not sure if I am doing it right, but I love them & they love me & we get to the end of the day & pray for another one. We get to a moment & pray for another one. We listen for those precious voices & pray we hear them everyday.
Yes, there are smooshed goldfish on the floor & the baby smells, but that reminds me I have been given the gift of a little one. It also reminds me I will never have a house featured in a magazine, but who cares I am not sure I have time for a magazine shoot in the middle of this life. This crazy, loud lovely life.
Thank you to my top 5 most favorite people.
I love you
