These dirty little faces tell a sweet story....

A story of sticky cheeks and red tongues from Sonic's cranberry slushes.
A story of grimy fingernails and 'sandy' hair from hours of playing in the sandbox.
A story of windows rolled down and hair flying in the breeze.
A story of sweaty boys from playing on the playground in the 'Toad Suck' sun.
A story of long naps in the cold air conditioner.
A story of a 'mac-n-cheese' picnic on a quilt in the backyard.
A story of bike rides and 'Gator' rides and pretending to be 'Lightning McQueen'.
A story of laying on a blanket and watching the clouds float by.
A story of a beautiful sunset from an amazing Creator.
A story of 'Saturday night baths' and the clean smell of baby lotion.
A story of a quiet house and three sleeping baby boys.
A story of a mother's heart that could not be more full.

Thank you, Lord, for days like today. And thank you, Lord, for the gift of being 'Mom' to these 3 boys. How fun it is to be able to 'relive' childhood through the eyes of my children....I think it is even more magical the second time around!!

What a sweet, sweet post! Thank you so much for your sweet comment on our blog. Thankful to know there are other mommas who can relate, ha! Let's be honest though, once you survive going from 1 to 2 babies, what's a few more! Glad to see all is going well with your fun family!
