We Do Not Remember Days, We Remember Moments

Kids will say and do the cutest dang things. I have to note a few things down that I actually remember so that I can AlWaYs remember my sweet children's personalities. I just love the age of sweet innocence. A couple of weeks ago my blow dryer broke so Aubryn lugged the big box fan into my bathroom so that I could blow dry my hair. So thoughtful :) Then one day when I was washing her in the bath tub I told her to stand up, she then stood, saluted, and said "aye, aye captain!" I had never said or heard her say that before. Very cute. Tonight while eating my super gourmet dinner of pancakes she told me, "mom, this dinner is GREAT!" And it wasn't a cheesy fake "Tony the Tiger" great, but a really thoughtful appreciative great. Oh, so many more precious moments but that's all that really comes to mind right now.

Beckham......Beckham is a handful, but so sweet and sensitive. As all kids, he also does some pretty cute stuff too. OK, can we say OBSESSED with BALLS! When he wakes up in the morning, one of the first words, if not the first word I hear in the monitor are either, "ball, ball" or "basketball"! And of course he speaks in the cutest little baby voice so that I cannot bear to leave him in his crib any longer. OK, I really can bear to, but if I was a better mom I would be running to smother him with hugs and kisses the second his voice started oozing with cuteness! Secondly, the very first body part that he learned was belly button. He LOVES to lift up his shirt and tell everybody the name in of course, the cutest little Beckham voice.

I feel so very grateful to be entrusted with these two wonderful little spirits. I am so grateful for their mental and physical health. I often wonder why I am so lucky to be so blessed! I love you so much Aubryn and Beckham. Always remember that.
