my heart and soul...

I loved you the minute I heard your heartbeat. I loved you the minute you were born. Then I saw your face and fell in love some more. You were only a minute old, but I knew I would die for you, and to this day I still would. When you choose to have a child you make a conscious decision to allow your heart to walk around outside your body. I have children that I love more than life! ♥

A promise to my children...

A PROMISE TO MY CHILDREN: I will stalk you, freak out on you, lecture you, drive you crazy, be your worst nightmare, embarrass you in front of your friends, hunt you down like a bloodhound.... because I LOVE YOU!!!

When you understand that, I will know you are a responsible Adult. You will never find someone who loves, cares and worries about you more than your mom! <3

LOVE....

My home is filled with toys, has fingerprints on everything & is NEVER quiet. My hair is usually a mess, make-up is a thing of the past, & I'm always tired, but there is always love & laughter here. In 20 years my children won't remember the house or my hair but they will remember the time we spent together and the love they felt. Your children only get one childhood... make it a good one. ♥
