I realized that my life is perfect.... EXACTLY AS IT IS!!!

Posted Dec 25, 2009 12:02 AM
As I sit at home this Christmas Eve, I just tucked my babies into their beds. They are so eager for Santa to visit tonight.

But tonight is different for me. . .

My girls have been with their Dad for the past week. This is the longest that I have ever been away from them. And throughout the past week, I realized just how incredible my life is.

I sat and wondered what I really did with my time, prior to having these two angels in my life. I realized that at the end of the day, trying as they may be, I truly have so so much to be grateful for! There are times as a single mom, that I pray for just 10 silent minutes to myself..... or the ability to go grocery shopping alone..... or just a Mommy time out! And after a week without my babies, I will most definitely take the trials and triumphs of my life.... for being Kaylee and Kelcee's mom is more rewarding then anything else I have ever done to this point!

I realized that the "Mommy, I sure do love you" or the "Mommy, you're the best Mommy in all the land" comments are so precious and I must cherish each and every single one of them. I realized that lately I have been sooooo soooo busy with work, with life, with buying a house, moving, changing jobs, and all of the other stresses in life that I have taken some of these occurences for granted.

But after a week of silence, 2 clean little girls rooms, and only 2 loads of laundry..... life would be quite boring without my princesses!!! :-x

Wishing each and every one of you amazing BraveHeart Women a Very Merry Christmas!!!

Share the JOY.... CHERISH the MOMENT..... LOVE like there is no tomorrow.... And DANCE LIKE NO ONE IS WATCHING!!!!!!

Hello Crystal,

You are so right... Life is perfect as is!!

Children have a way of putting everything into perspective for us and a way of getting us to dig deep inside ourselves when we think we cannot go on.

This Christmas season I am blessed with having both boys at home. They are now 25 and 21 and I must say that it is all about ages and stages... each one special in its own way.

Enjoy your time with your girls. It is all precious.

Your Braveheart sister,

Dear Crystal:

Merry Christmas! Your words ring true for me as well. I love it when I "wake up" to all the good I have HERE and NOW.

Being a mother, a friend, a teacher, a sister is wonderful!

Happy New Year!

Hello Dear Crystal...

Yes, the precious time with our beautiful children is indeed a gift and a privilege for us.
Enjoy EVERY DAY with your precious angels...!!!

My Big Angel is not at home this Christmas...having just entered the Navy. He is almost 20 but still I miss my amazing son this Christmas morning. I have been thinking about all the beautiful Christmas mornings when he would come running in ready to go downstairs to see what Santa had left for him....and to check out those stockings!
(We did receive 2 phone calls from him yesterday....what a special gift to hear his voice!)

Relish each day....store each memory in your heart.
Your babies will always be part of you no matter where in the world they are. :-x

Much love for a beautiful Christmas holiday!!! :-x
