I love...

Avery:
I love how Avery tells me she loves me 20 times a day
I love that she cleans up her room without being asked
I love the she will eat almost anything I give her
I love her sensitivity
I love how she is always willing to help and rarely complains about it
I love her desire to make friends
I love how she watches out and takes care of her brother and sister
I love the she loves PINK
I love that you will never find her with at least one necklace but most of the time it's at least 3(most of which she made)
I love how if I yawn she quickly asks me if I am crying and is so concerned(every time)
I love when she is super chatty and says,"Mom, let's talk"
I love when she talks like she is 10
I love that she asks me every night what we are going to do the next day
I love that she is so easy to take anywhere
I love how she always finds a way to brighten up my day

Thomas:
I love his imagination
I love how he loves to figure things out and explore
I love how his smile melts me
I love how when he does something wrong he quickly says,"I'm sorry mom, I didn't mean too"
I love how easily he makes friends
I love how he can't live without his sisters
I love how excited he is for school(I just don't want him to go)
I love how protective he is of Brynnley and often tells her he loves her
I love how much he idolizes his Dad
I love how he tells me he is going outside to find dinosaur eggs(hasn't found one yet, but he is convinced)
I love how he is convinced he is turning 5 and not 4
I love how he tries to convince me why he should stay up longer some nights
I love that he does certain things because that is how stegosaurus does it
I love how when he accomplishes a physical task he tells me how big and strong he is
I love that today he told me his body wants to have a stomach ache and gas so he needs candy(I tell him he will get a stomach ache if he eats too much and well the gas part comes from the male species) I have realized his body talks to him a lot.
I love this boy!!

Brynnley:
I love how Brynnley bows her head when I am getting her out of her highchair so I can take her bib off.
I love that she bounces in her crib every time I put her to bed like it's a trampoline
I love how when the kids get her out of trouble and onto the couches she bounces away and stays there(sometimes being annoyed)
I love her big bright blue eyes
I love when she smiles and scrunches her nose
I love her fake laugh and adore her real one
I love when her face lights up when she sees her mom
I love that she says "Da Da" when the garage door opens
I love that she doesn't have stranger anxiety(well not yet anyways)
I love that she has hair that I can put clips in:)
I love how much she loves Avery
I love how she already loves to play with Avery and Thomas(in fact she was laughing when she and Thomas were wrestling the other day)
I love when some of the simplest things make her laugh really hard
I love how she reaches out her hand when she wants you to come get her
I love her hand motions when I sing patty cake
I love that I get to raise this sweet little girl

Just a few reason why I love my children as I think of them today. I am so blessed and try not to take a day for granted that I have them. Being a mother is a full time job. It's a job I don't take lightly. It's not always easy but the good days out weigh the bad and make it all worth it. I sometime wish they could stay little but I also am enjoying them grow up. I will never understand how some mothers can abuse this right and privilege. Children are precious. I think children show what true unconditional love is. I love my children and am grateful to be their mom.
