Joyous Present



We had a giggle fest this lazy Sunday afternoon. Emma and Alexandra piled up pillows around their tent and I jumped around tickling them and acting silly for their amusement. Their laughter brings so much joy and love to my heart. For me it is the sweetest sound ever. I love them so much and they continuously amaze me with the things they do and say. One of my favorite quotes from Emma this week: "mama, you are the queen of children" which I thought she said: "you are the clean of children" and then she clarified to me that I am the queen not the clean! I figured my subconscious probably heard it that way because I worry a lot about cleaning which is a never ending task once you have kids. However, there are some days that I am just more relaxed about it and actually those are the best days were I completely enjoy being in the moment with them. Time goes my so quickly, Alexandra is 15 months and Emma 4 years old now. Life has been very busy for us with amazing learning experiences, opportunities, and change, some good, some sad. I look forward to our journey of life together and soon will be posting all of our adventures.
