celebrating what it means to be a momma.

time goes so fast.
too fast.
and i know there will be a day when they don't need me as much.
(((sob)))
when i can't be with them every second of the day.
(((sob)))
when they won't run home & tell me every detail of our time apart.
because they'll be busy with their own plans & dreams.
whatever. lol.

so until then, i'm soaking up every darn second of
the good & the annoying that comes with motherhood.
rubbing backs, wiping bottoms & noses,
clipping itty bitty toe nails,
homework, hand holding,
bedtime stories, long, simple prayers.
the mundane.
the exciting.
all of it.

i don't want to take a minute of this for granted.
this.
motherhood.
my dream come true.

thank you audrey, ellie, & eden for making me a mother.
i know i'm not the best at it.
i know i say 'you're makin' me CRAZY!' more than i should.
but i sure do enjoy every single crazy second with you three.
you teach me so, so much.
and i love you more than you'll ever know.

i'm so lucky you're mine.

thank you Jesus for allowing me to be a mother x3.
it is such a beautiful thing.
one i don't take for granted.
and i'm forever thankful.

and happiest of days to my momma.
i'm so lucky you're mine, too.

and to tim's mom, too!
thank you for raising the best guy i know. we love you!

happy mother's day, friends.
i'm so grateful for each of you!
