Wesley's Due Date

Well, today was the official due date for Wesley! 

~Here's a look at him today, at 18 days old~

 

 

 

To think something so precious only takes nine months to create and I get to love him for a hundred years! Some mom's say "When he/she's 18 I'm done!"but I say, "Not me! I get to be a Mommy for a hundred years! I'll leave my legacy with him! My children and grandchildren will know me~ who I was as a person, a Mommy, a GrandMommy and, hopefully, as a friend!

I look forward to a life lived as one using all the talents God has given me. That's why my picture above says "I would hope at the end of my life I would not have a single bit of talent left and could say, 'I used everything you gave me'" so that in the end I can obtain the prize- like the Bible says, "All who run the race run all, but only one wins the prize". I want to run well not only to obtain the prize God has for me in Heaven, but because I want to be all that He created me to be.

And part of that is raising my boys to know who God made them to be! These little jewels that were created by God himself! My little miracle babies that God entrusted to me!! I get to love them, kiss them, hug them and live life with them! I hope to teach them so much!!

The song "Let them be little" has been my heart's song since April 9th, 2009 when Charlie came into our lives. This song will ring in my heart forever!!! I don't care if it's the day they are getting married- the face I will only see is the ones above...those innocent eyes...hmmm...thoughts that are too hard to think right now!

Well, I am going to sign off and go spend some much needed family time with my boys!!! 
All 3 of them! 

Here's to living: health, home, and a happy family!
Who says you can't have it all?
