My boys!



It's 4:00 a.m. Saturday morning. Jack woke me when I heard his door slam and then as I heard him totter into our bedroom. He told me he was thirsty and needed a drink. I carried him back to his bed and went downstairs to get him some water. When I came back to his room, he was almost back to sleep and didn't care much about a drink anymore. I kissed him and left his room. And now, here I am, not sleepy and unable to get back to sleep.


As I was laying in bed, I was overwhelmed with thoughts of my three boys - Jordan, Jack, and Luke. I couldn't be more blessed! I have an amazing husband/daddy who loves and provides for his family. I have two awesome little boys. Jack, who is now 2 and so much fun, and Luke who is 7 months and couldn't be sweeter.


Jack makes me laugh every day. He is full of energy and is always ready to play or read books. He is so much like Jordan. Whenver I look at Jack, I feel like I am looking back in time to what Jordan must have been like as a two year old boy!


Luke is such a sweet baby. He is very happy most of the time and loves to smile. He is really beginning to develop his own little personality and it's so fun to see/imagine what he will be like when he's Jack's age. He is sitting up now, scoots around the room on his tummy, and rolls all over the place. He isn't crawling yet, but I'm sure that won't be too far off.


Being a mom is full of unpredictable moments, during the day and at night:) But I sure am glad Jack woke me tonight because it gave me a chance to reflect on the blessings that God has given me -- Jordan, Jack & Luke.

So sweet! And that's really nice that you were up in the middle of the night thinking positive thoughts of your children... I'm not sure I can say the same of Kate when she wakes me up in the middle of the night! hehe.
