For Granted

Some times in life you are reminded of the things that you have and the things that you take for granted. I was reminded of quite a lot of things I take fore granted this last week. 3 of the most important things in my life....MY KIDS!!! Matt and I were very lucky to have been able to be blessed with 3 healthy, beautiful children. And not just the fact that were we blessed with them, but the fast that we were able to easily get pregnant with each of them and that my pregnancies were relatively easy and no major complications occurred. I truly have taken this for granted and I feel very humbled and very grateful to a loving Father in Heaven that has allowed this to happen for us. I feel blessed and honored to be able to be a mother. I hope that I can raise good children, that they will feel loved in our home and that they in turn will love others and be good people.

Sometimes I get all caught up in the hustle and bustle of life and the routine of the every day and I do forget how lucky I am and how fast time does go. I am so glad that I have the time with my kids to capture and create memories and that I have the knowledge of Eternity that we can be together always. I am so glad that I have captured memories through scrapbooking and blogging so that I can remember all these precious times with my kids. I am sure there will be one day, 20 years from now, when I look back and it will seem like yesterday these kids were so little. They keep me busy and sometimes I get mad, frustrated, and overwhelmed, but this is just a moment in my life right now and I wouldn't have it any other way!!!
