No pictures and just a post about life. I just feel the need to post about my husband, my kids and everything in our life. I have an amazing husband who I love with all my heart. He is supportive and tells me everyday that I am beautiful. Even if my hair is in a ponytail, no make-up and not dressed to the T. He loves me on my good days and my bad. I love that we have an open and honest realtionship. When we were dating he told me that the loved how real I was. By this he meant that I didn't play games and would usually tell him what I thought. I really hope that after being married seven and a half year he still loves my honesty. I am sure I say things he may not want to hear at times. But he listens and he loves me. I am so grateful that I have him as my eternal companion. He is working so hard right now and I do miss seeing him.
My kids are so wonderful. I don't know if any other moms out there feel like failures as a parent but at times I do. When I lose my temper or just can't handle whatever it is. I am glad that my children know I love them and I am so glad that I know they love me. Ethan told me he is the boss tonight. He told me he is the boss because he is "grown-up". That made me laugh. Yet, they are growing up so fast. Where has the time gone. Some days I just want to yell stop I need more time with them. Don't grow up yet. Ellie is getting so tall and independent. She is smart, beautiful and sweet. She loves to touch everyone. I wonder if she just wants to make sure we are all still here. Ethan is such a joy and he makes me laugh. I love when he crawls on my lap and wants me to hold him. He has these big brown eyes and they just seem to twinkle with mischief and love at the same time. Marley smiles and my heart melts. Heavenly Father knew I needed her sunshine at this time in my life. When I was a baby my mom wrote a poem about my smiles. I feel the same way she did when I see Marley's smiles.
I am grateful everyday for my family. I am grateful for the joys and the hardships that we have had. I know that life is a great adventure full of ups and downs. I know that my Saviour loves. My Heavenly father knows my heart and that I really am trying my best. I am truly grateful for each new day that I can start over and try to be better than the day before (I don't always succeed but I try). My heart was full tonight and I wanted to share. Like I said just a post no pictures!

sometimes it's nice to just sit down and type out your thoughts. very sweet, very heartfelt.
and yes, i too have days where i feel like i've failed my kids, but then again, i love them and they love me and so i get up and try better the next day.
i think we all have days (or weeks or months!) like that. i too love those who are "real" and can just say it how it is. it is refreshing to hear that other moms feel and go through such similar experiences. i go to bed every night feeling inadequate. there's something to be learned in that i think - if i knew exactly what that was i probably wouldn't feel that way so much :) you're great!
