My boys

Our oldest is now three years old. Wow how time flies. This little blond haired brown eyed boy is the most wonderful boy in the world. I can't believe how much I love and adore him. He is the most wonderful gift that God has ever given to me (well he and his little bro). Eli and I love them so much.

He is getting his first big boy bike for his birthday, and he is so excited. I think we are more excited though about giving it to him.

I don't know if anyone else feels this way. But before I had children, I never understood how people could say that they would rather themselves be pained than to watch their own children go through pain or that they could even die for their kids.

I guess I was just selfish, but now I realize how much I thought of myself back then and how very little I thought of others. Now when I look at both of my children, I know that I would lay down my life for them in a second, and it pains me to my core whenever they are hurt or sad or distressed.

So this is to my three year old and also to my one year old.

I love you. I love you. I love you.
