My life

I really love my life right now. I love having my sisters so close that I can hang out with them whenever I want. (and brother-in-law...)I love my little kiddos and the age they are at. We sure do a lot of hanging out, and they are always making me laugh. Jaxon is into asking all sorts of random questions. Like, "mom, if you see a snowman does that mean you will be a snowman?" Or, "does flower mean syrup?" The answer he gets from me more often than not is, I don't know!!! I love my husband, and how hard he works in school. We just got invited to a dinner to recognize him as the top student in his class, for the second year in a row. AWESOME! He's great. I love that I have a friend to trade kids with so we can go running in the mornings. I love watching Jaxon's swimming lessons with Sagie by my side. I love having absolutely nothing I need to do more often than not. I know that someday it won't be that way, and I'll be busy with a hundred different things, but for now, I love just hanging out. I need to remember these days for when those days come. Life is good, and I am grateful to live the happy life that I do, when I know that there are so many in the world who do not. I am very blessed, and although my patience often wears thin, I am very happy!

You are ahead of the game since you can realize and appreciate the life you have right now. So many people are looking at what's around the corner only to get there and then realize how great it was "back when" congratulations to you for being an amazing mom and role model for other mom's out there.

Life is great. So glad you are enjoying yours. I love the stage my kids are at right now too. We're busy but not too busy and they need me but not really all at the same time.

What a happy post!!! So much to be grateful for and so important to make note of it. Just finished reading Eyring's talk about remembering and recording God's hand in our lives. You, my dear sister, are living proof of God's hand in my life. Thank you!
