I love when it's -5 degrees outside and I can hug my sweet boy in my arms with a big blanket around both of us. I love that he won't take off his pj's this morning because they have dogs on them. I love that he wants to do "projects" just like mommy. I love that every stuffed dog he has must have a leash. It's moments like these I longed for when I prayed that God would bless us with a child--I LOVE BEING A MOMMY!

I love when it is -5 degrees outside and I can hug my little boy in my arms with a big blanket wrapped around both of us. I love snuggling and getting little hugs and kisses. I love that he won't take off his pj's this morning because they have dogs on them. These are the moments I longed for when I prayed that God would grant to us a child. I LOVE BEING A MOMMY!

Good News Thursday happend here in Chicagoland for my kids. We are -20 degrees -48 degrees with windchill and we got the call this morning NO SCHOOL!! We can't be outside for very long at one time without all the proper clothing or there's a chance of frostbite and hypothermia.
I enjoy your blog every morning it is funny, encouraging and just plain REAL!

One of my favorite quotes about love is one I learned in junior high: Love is like a butterfly - it goes wherever it pleases and pleases wherever it goes.

The song called Hope by Jack Johnson was featured on Stacy Julian's blog today and it is sticking with me. I keep replaying it and each time I hear it, I hear it differently. Here is the chorus... *Life sometimes* lifts you up and other times it lets you down. It will defeat you and then teach you to get back up ... after it takes away things that you learn to love. Life will teach you to love what you're afraid of ...
... but you don't always have to hold your head higher than your heart.
Good stuff...
My favorite quotes are.."Your thoughts create your life", Phillipians 4:13, and "Promise me you will always remember...you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think"--Christopher Robin to Pooh.

My favorite thing are my two kids. I love them with all my heart - even when they're driving me crazy. I like your two quotes from your previous post: "Revealing your feelings is the beginning of Healing" and especially: "Confess your Mess so you Live more and worry Less." I let them resonate with me for the next few days.
Who couldn't use a bix box o' product. Thanks for your generosity.

My all-time favorite quote about love/charity:
"Perhaps the greatest charity comes when we are kind to each other, when we don’t judge or categorize someone else, when we simply give each other the benefit of the doubt or remain quiet. Charity is accepting someone’s differences, weaknesses, and shortcomings; having patience with someone who has let us down; or resisting the impulse to become offended when someone doesn’t handle something the way we might have hoped. Charity is refusing to take advantage of another’s weakness and being willing to forgive someone who has hurt us. Charity is expecting the best of each other." Marvin J.

To my husband and me our "big love" is fueled by the way we love through all the little things in life- the tenderness and teamwork we show when one of our children wakes up in the night after throwing up on themselves, their bed, everything in a 10 ft. radius, and yet later, after it is all cleaned up, we still can have laugh...when we are cutting back on spending so I can be a stay at home mom and our nights out become nights in with a free movie from the library and a bowl of air-popped popcorn...they way we always say "i'm sorry"- and mean it...that he still wants to hold my hand after 17 years together- and that I want to hold that hand too, and that we always kiss goodnight. To me that is love- not the exciting, hollywood, romance novel love- but real love. And as the Beatles said it best, "All you need is love." But the occasional date night would be ok too.
