I am so blessed. I am the mom to two beautiful boys. Two boys I thought I'd never get to have. Five years ago I never though I'd be sitting here with one beautiful child, let alone two. I'm still amazed. I look at my two boys and am shocked that I am a mother, that these boys came from me and belong to me. I now say "children" instead of "child" and "sons" instead of "son." We are a family of four now. Wow!
Words cannot even begin to express how grateful I am to have these children, to be a mom. Each night I drop to my knees and thank my Heavenly Father for these blessings. I now know what they mean when they say your posterity brings you joy because I feel it each day when I am with my sons. Each smile, each laugh, each age, each stage. It all brings me joy. I am blesses, so very blessed.

That made me cry. Children are truly such a blessing, and sometimes I get too caught up in the chaos to remember to be so grateful for the sweet little ones God has entrusted me with. Thanks for sharing your post!
I completely and utterly understand where you are coming from, because I have had similar thoughts and feelings. I'm so incredibly blessed as well, and I really appreciate your post!
How sweet! You are so blessed!!! Children are such a gift. Oh heavens, I'm coming back to the board soon. Perhaps early March. Things are just nuts right now. But I miss you guys. See ya!
Yeah Good to see you back in the game! Those two of yours are beautiful.
This is a post that us moms should read often because yes, we ARE blessed! I am so glad that you are a mom to 2 very handsome sons.
BTW~ Is it too late to be added to your sidebar?
It has been so nice to "hear" from you!
what a sweet post! you are such a great mom to be able to remember to enjoy the journey. (hugs)
Thanks for the reminder that we really are blessed to have these little stinkers in our lives- I definitely needed that!
That is so true, and a reminder that I really needed today.
I remember the first day that hit me when I had my 2 girls. We were on a trip to see family, and the two of them were in the backseat sleeping.... I looked at them and was overwhelmed with the same thoughts: Children, instead of child, daughters instead of daughter, Family of 4. Now as a family of 7.... I find those days bring longing to my mind for simpler days. :P
I wouldn't trade what I have, but miss that moment of elation.
You don't know me personally but I've visited your blog on and off and just wanted to say that I'm so happy for you. What a beautiful post.
