The years with her have flew by, and i need to remember to spend quality time with her when i can. Time with the little ones goes so fast and it wont be long before they are too old for mummy's hugs at bedtime. I dread when that comes!! Hug their soft chubby little cheeks while you can LOL! <br /><br />Blessings, <br />JulieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984956841131982891.post-1195620547177203112011-03-03T06:53:59.661-06:002011-03-03T06:53:59.661-06:00What a beautiful post.

I have just finished reading Mary Beth Chapman's book 'Choosing to See'. It has made me determined to just bask in those moments with my children - today's moments are tomorrow's memories and I ask myself what I want to remember most in the days to come - how I shined my sink each night or the bedtime prayers with my precious children who I still get to tuck in. Each night my twin girls insist that after praying for them that I pray for their teddies or dolls - it's usually Winnie the Pooh who is deemed to be the one in most need of intercession! I say aloud to myself 'I'm a crazy mother - I pray for teddy bears!' I'm grateful that Pooh bear is likely to be popular for years to come - whenever I see his picture it will take me back to these moments.Ann at eightacresofedenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15524581927752695509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984956841131982891.post-8767695142723534902011-03-02T20:05:58.573-06:002011-03-02T20:05:58.573-06:00I just want to testify....

I just went on and did not see the title because my little 3 yr old was at his bedroom door... so I put the laptop down and went to go see him and asked what was wrong, and he said "I just want to hug you mommy", and because this is now mommy time I just rushed him off to his bed and told him had to go to sleep. I came back to the laptop and just saw the words "mommy I cant sleep" and skimmed through the post quickly and then looked at the title ... THANK YOU for this post God totally used you to speak to me!!! Its time to go give my little one a hug, kiss and apology... good night and God bless you...<br />MonicaGod's Most Precioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14208386039824961045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984956841131982891.post-11042251001955044512011-03-02T19:38:56.948-06:002011-03-02T19:38:56.948-06:00Beautifully said!

Just last night after I had put our almost eight month old to bed, I was passing by the kids bedroom and went in to hug, kiss and tuck in our four other little ones. "Mom, will you pleeeease read Farmer Boy?", they pleaded. We only have two chapters left until we can start the next book in the series and since the baby arrived our nightly readings haven't been as regular. I hesitated, getting ready to answer, "Not tonight". I was so tired and it was almost 9 pm. But something tugged at my heart. What's fifteen more minutes going to matter? Our kids will be grown up and have families of their own in a blink of an eye and then I will wish I would have taken that extra fifteen minutes to read Farmer Boy. So I did...and I'm so glad I did. I'm sure there will be nights that I say "Not tonight, but I'm praying I will say "Yes, my little ones" more often!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984956841131982891.post-56020784291682649462011-03-02T13:47:14.637-06:002011-03-02T13:47:14.637-06:00I pray to be a mother like this one day.

I have been leaving our adopted two year old with siblings a lot, in order to spend time alone with my husband, clean the house, get the dinner on...etc. Last night, she reminded me that SHE needs me to remain devoted to her bonding process by having a complete meltdown (these are not fits or tantrums, but very different, abandonment related distressful crying jags.) I felt such remorse, but am determined to do better, with God's help.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14106911497739777113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984956841131982891.post-86807843768944509762011-03-02T13:12:12.531-06:002011-03-02T13:12:12.531-06:00Beautiful.
