A Poem

"Life is no straight and easy corridor along

which we travel free and unhampered,

but a maze of passages,

through which we must seek our way,

lost and confused, now and again

checked in a blind alley.

But always, if we have faith,

a door will open for us,

not perhaps one that we ourselves

would ever have thought of,

but one that will ultimately

prove good for us."

-A.J. Cronin

Night Night

There is nothing I look forward to more than the days I have with my kids. We have so much fun and they make me so glad I'm their mom. I have to write about this because I don't want to forget.

Bed time is a disaster.
They are hyper, goofy, and not even close to tired. They laugh uncontrollably, lick each other, one likes to "toot my butt" in the others face, stand up on the bed and fall back which most often results in hitting a head on the wall, coming out from the bedroom asking for water multiple times (Reg), making sure their trucks and dolls are protected snug and tight with their blankies, talking and laughing through the prayer, purposely laying arms and legs on top of each other, screaming and laughing through storytime, and last but not least... lots of fun and lots of love. There are many hugs and many kisses before I'm allowed to leave the room.

I love it... it drives me crazy, but I love it.
