Life is amazing! Kailyn is 2 months old, smiling, gooing and is the perfect baby to complete our family. I am so grateful that God gave us such a precous gift. She has completed my heart and I can not wait to watch her grow up. Noah has started transition and goes to school 5 days a week. He is doing awesome and his teacher said he is doing comparatively well in writing. It only surpises me because he thinks it is "boring." lol Andrew is home with me and Kailyn and I cherich the time we have together. He can always bring a smile to my face. When he thinks he puts his finger to his cheek and taps, hilarious. Brad commented the other night on how much the boys love life...sometimes they are loud and crazy but they are just totally in love with life. That sums them up the best. Everything brings them joy and their honest and frequent expression of that joy is amazing. Evrerywhere I look I see another person that makes me smile. It can't get any better than this.

Kick kick
I am feeling the baby move all the time now! It is still a crazy feeling even though it is the third time. I can't wait to feel the little hiccups the boys had all the time. I still can't believe it's a girl but I am having fun shopping. It is also fun to think about how she will be, how the boys will be as big brothers, and just how different life will be when the little princess is born. I know she will complete our family and I know God meant for her to be in our lives. It makes me smile thinking of His plan and how He made it happen. We are blessed!

Noah and God
I told Noah yesterday I wasn't feeling to good. He said that he and daddy would pray for me. He said he would ask God to come in to my heart and make me feel better. He said God always does that for him and everyone else, makes us feel better by coming into our heart. I love that he already believes and feels God's protection.

Graduation reflections
I walked in my college graduation yesterday. I was emotional about my accomplishment. I am especially hopeful that my graduation will serve as a reminder to my boys that they can accomplish anything and nothing should ever get in their way. I hope they get inspiration at some point in there lives from my experience. Most of all I thank God for giving me the strength and passion to persevere through it all. Anything is possible!

Christmas
I love this year! Noah is asking so many questions about Jesus. He asked about His birth then we talked about Easter. He asked how He died and where the bad guys came from. I love that he cares about Jesus who truly is who we celebrate on Christmas. I can only pray he continues in his faith walk which has become revealed through Christmas. He is also quite excited about Santa. I have always loved Christmas but there is a new joy experiencing it with my children.

Brothers
I just love watching the boys grow up together and really love each other. Andrew spontaneously kisses Noah and vice versa. They kiss and hug just because they want to and it warms my heart. Watching them laugh, play and create memories is a gift and I treasure their love for one another. Noah is already a great big brother and I can only hope Andrew will follow in his footsteps.
