Just for Mommy

This post is just for Mommy, as I strive to cherish the sweetness of these delightful years. Oh how I love my husband and our little girls. I hope any dear readers of this post will pardon me for getting a bit sentimental at times, but one of my aims in maintaining a blog is to perhaps hold on to our sweet memories, remembering them in the best way that I can as the years go by. I do a bit of journaling here and there, I try to take lots and lots of pictures, and I do save those special mementos that will cause us to remember just a little bit more in the years ahead. But here, with this blog, I hope to be able to share just how much these special days with our young family mean to me. And perhaps, down the road, our little girls, when they are not so little anymore, will cherish these thoughts and ideas, knowing just how much we love them. And maybe they might even use an idea or two as they raise their young families.

So this one's for me:

Thank you my precious husband for how much you love me, for how much you love our girls. Thank you for leading our family in service to the Lord. Thank you for taking care of us, for working so hard to provide for our family. And thank you for delighting in what's important to us. How excited we are to see you at the end of the day! And what a task you have trying to shower each of us with affection as we try to clamor our way to you. Thank you for reading books and playing with horses and stables and farms, and thank you for taking our little ones for walks outside. What precious memories we have. Thank you for all of the wonderful years we've had together.

You are the love of my life.

And thank you, our little girls, for being so precious. You are so sweet, so lovable, so beautiful. Your sweet little souls fill my heart with joy. You make my days so full and so rich, and you give me such purpose. How I love having you with me as we go about our day. I love our sweet moments at home in the morning, our sweet outings in the afternoon, and our sweet snuggles at night. I love your smiles and your hugs. I love that you both love Daddy and Mommy so much. I love you, our oldest, for loving God so much and for having such a sweet, loving spirit that you try to do just what He asks of you, even at such a tender age. I love you, our littlest, for getting so excited about our Bible studies, for sitting so sweetly, looking up at Mommy and holding your little Bible, eyes filled with wonder and joy as we sing our Bible song.

I love you our little ones.

How thankful I am for God's richest blessings.

How He has made my dreams come true!
