Kids do the most amazing things....

It seems like every time I turn around my kids are doing the neatest things. I am constantly trying to remember all the cool things they say and do so that I can tell Justin and others when I can. People tell me all the time, "oh enjoy this time while their young, these days go by so fast." My desire each day is to enjoy and take advantage of each opportunity and each moment with my precious little ones. They mean the world to me, and I truly do savor the moments, the comments, the hugs, the cuddles, the why mommy?, the creative ideas. But no matter how much we try to savor each moment, the days still fly by. Time doesn't stop no matter what we do. I am amazed at how quickly the past 6 years have flown by. I take tons of pictures and video when I can, and I try to replay moments in my head so that I won't forget, and yet I still forget so much. Children are definitely God's greatest blessing here on earth. I am forever greatful for mine and for each moment I get to spend with them.

Yesterday I overheard Cameron and Jalen talking, Cameron wanted Jalen to do something with Math, and Jalen answered, "Ah, I'm not good at that, but I can rhyme, do you want to rhyme?" (I thought it was so funny)

Last week in the van, I told the kids that we were going swimming that night, and they we're all so excited, Cameron shouted out as he raised his hands up high, "Praise the Lord".

Miah calls Jalen, "Lalen" (it is so cute)
Miah says "I love you mommy" at least 10 times a day, with the biggest smile in the world.

(As I am typing this, Miah came out of bed to go potty but didn't make it to the tiolet, so I just cleaned up pee from the carpet and her pj's and cleaned her up and got her back to bed.)........ Now that is funny!
