There,s a needlepoint that I did in my 'spare" time when my babies were little and it became a mantra for me. To paraphrase, it goes.."so go away cobwebs, dust go to sleep, I'm rocking my baby and babies won't keep". I am so haqppy that one of those babies has grown up to be the mom I so wanted to be for her. I love you Carrie and You are the person I most admire in this world. I love you sweet baby girl of mine.
ReplyDeleteYou know you have kids when the lump in your throat is so big you cannot swallow; when the tears in your eyes blind you so that you cannot see; and when your heart is so full of joy that you feel it bursting in your chest from all the pride and joy you are filled with, you know you have kids and they are the reason for so much joy. There is nothing like it on this side of heaven, the joy of having children, the joy I have from my children and my bullfrog and four butterflies.
ReplyDeleteDoes an aunt count? Because although I have not done all of those things yet but I would gladly do all of them t times three for those little hugs and kisses from my nieces and nephew. I love those kids more then anything and I would gladly take any good or bad to be with them.
