Sunny Love

The past few days I've been thinking about all the ways Ella and I are alike... Also how Cassidy and I are similar in many ways too... Brody and I are the same also, we both like to laugh and be silly from time to time. Although all of us have common traits we are all sooo different in just as many ways. Why do children have to complain about every meal... even the one they just requested... you'll never see me turn away a home cooked meal, or any food for that matter. Bedtime's a real treat... who is going to refuse to brush their teeth after drinking Soda from their Sippy Cup, or who's going to refuse to go potty, or better yet just plain refuse to sleep, even when they are so tired they look like a drunken sailor. I never refuse sleep... I wish I had nap time or that Jesse read a story and tucked me in EARLY!

It's amazing to me how crazy, irrational, and just plain chaotic bedtime, potty time, or dinner time can be, maybe that is why WE love these little monsters we call children. I've said before and I'll say again... I never realized how much my parents prayed until I got a child just like me... and now that I have THREE I think I've still underestimated even that.

I've heard that a parents Love is much like the SUN, it's still there even on cloudy days, though it may not look like it.... It's very easy to see the Love on days like today.
