A TRIBUTE TO MOMS

A Newborn's Conversation with God
A baby asked God, "They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"
God said, "Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you."

The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in heaven I don't have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy."
God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you.And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy."

Again the small child asked, "And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don't know the language?"
God said, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak."

"And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"
God said, "Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray."

"Who will protect me?"God said, "Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life."

"But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore."
God said, "Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you."

At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, "God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel's name."

God said, You will simply call her, " Mom ."

Good Job all you Mommies out there...Keep up the good work!!

A Few Firsts


This last month has added a few first for our family and boys. Kyson's first trip to the hospital. He had a very high fever and so we made the trip to the ER a few days before my birthday. We stayed over night so that they could monitor him because he had a very high whiteblood cell count. After some rounds of IV antibiotics he seemed to be much better and we headed home the next evening. Kyson also celebrated his first Easter. Lincoln loved that the Easter Bunny "pooped" eggs all over his house. We spent Easter with Evan and Joanna and had another first experience with going to WonderCon, a comicbook convention. That is where the Batman and Batwoman picture is from. We rode BART over the S.F. and Lincoln just loved that. Another first was daddy letting Lincoln paint. And as you can see from the picture it got a little messy. Lincoln looks like he thinks he is going to get in trouble. Soon we will be celebrating a first birthday. We can't believe Kyson will be one here in about 6 weeks. Time sure does fly!!

The Joys of Parenthood

Well it's been awhile since I have posted. Our lives are wonderfully and crazily busy as we are learning the joys of parenting two. For the month of February that has meant a sick child every week. It seems just as one gets better the other gets sick. Trevor and I are getting frustrated with having to take time off work, but we slow down and realize that this is our job now and taking care of our boys needs to be our first priorities. This month has also brought 5 new teeth for Kyson and the new adventure of crawling. Lincoln is using new vocabulary every day. He never ceases to amaze us with the things that he can come up with. Like, "Hey dad how about while I do this you can go and do that" or "mom that shape is an octagon." We love every minute we have with our boys even if it is crazy and tiring. Other exciting news is that my youngest sister, Amanda is engaged! We are looking forward to planning a wedding for her and welcoming Uncle Nick into our family officially. Well the month of March is now upon us and we are hoping that it holds healthy kids for us. Trevor and I will also be celebrating our 5 year anniversary and I will be celebrating my last birthday of the 20s....WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE!
