Wait a dog-gone second! Who said our children can grow up the second we blink?! I don't remember that being part of the deal...
I snapped these pictures of my two littles today and looking at them while editing I just burst into tears. I cannot believe how fast time is really going by. This coming April Cooper will be three years old and Kacie is already almost six months old.
While we are in the mist of parenting I find myself at times just honestly trying to get through the day and counting down the minutes until nap time, because honestly parenting and working from home is the hardest thing I have ever had to do. There is so much of me that has to stay structured while working and maintaining an updated work flow while the other half of me feels guilty for not spending quality time with the kids! These pictures really put it in perspective for me today... these kids see myself and my husband working hard everyday for not only them but for our livelihood. I hope that the one trait that my children get from me is my hardworking attitude. This was something that was passed down to me by my parents and I hope to continue the legacy with my littles. I pray everyday that I am the best mother to these two (and more if God wants there to be... later possibly God, LATER!) and though some days I struggle and fail at it badly, I pray for continued strength and courage to keep moving forward with a smile on my face and light of Jesus shining bright!
