Tuesday Morning Messages...

One of my best good friends Twighla suggested I change my Tuesday Thingy to Mondays and name it MONDAY MESSAGES! I love, love, loved that idea and decided I would do just that. Well Monday came and I realized there was too much to do and another blog to write and I just didn't get around to it. I think it would be best to continue writing it on Tuesday's, but using her idea I've decided to call it TUESDAY MORNING MESSAGES, kind of like Monday Messages, but not. So now, hopefully, this is the last week I have a long drawn out explanation attached to my cute little messages. Here goes...

TUESDAY MORNING MESSAGES

Dear Miah,

Thank you so, so, so, much for

waking up with the kids this morning and

getting them ready for school, even though

you were up really late studying.

You probably needed to sleep more than I did.

You da best.

Love you.

Dear Ashlynne,

You are seriously all a mother could want in a child.

Last night as you read your essay in front of a full auditorium

at your D.A.R.E. graduation I beamed with pride. You are such

a poised little girl and I felt like I had a glimpse of all the future

holds for you. Always remember who you are.

Your Madre

Dear Brinton,

I am having such a great time being your cubscout leader.

Watching you learn and grow is one of the biggest pleasures

of my life. As I watched you make a creation using your genius

kit at the Blue and Gold banquet last week, I just had to smile.

You've always been so creative and you are so good at thinking outside the box.

It reminded me of when you were just 18 mos old and you took apart

your clothes hamper so you could use the wooden dowel to flip the light switch

on and off because you couldn't reach it. LOL! You have always had a knack

for taking something and making it something else.

I love how your creative mind works.

ILY! Mommy

Dear Elise,

Preschool was really, really rough.

(so rough that you only lasted 6 weeks)

Kindergarten was really rough.

First grade was rough.

Second grade has been NOT rough!

You are really growing up to be such a beautiful young girl.

Sitting in Parent Teacher Conference I'm always a little nervous

but when your teacher told me how great you were doing socially,

academically, and how you are a great example to the other children

I was admittedly shocked and so incredibly pleased!

YAY! You're getting it! I'm so happy!!

Love,

Your Yummer-yemon cupcake Momma

Dear Julianna,

You love Aidan so much.

You love Aidan so much you want to inhale him,

eat him for breakfast,

love on him till he cries!

I think it's so sweet that you want to kiss him, hug him,

feed him, play with him, hold him

alllll. dayyyyyy. long.

Sometimes I get mad because I feel like you are constantly

annoying him but I started thinking that maybe it's a good thing

that you constantly want to smother him with love....

because that means you don't want to smother him. ;)

I love you to bits and pieces and xoxoxoxox..(now I know where you get it)

Dear Liam,

Yesterday at lunch time before we ate I told you we needed to say a prayer first.

You quickly bowed your head, folded your arms and before I could say anything more said, "Heavenly Father, Thank you this day, bless our family, bless the food, In the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen" It was so cute...you said it so fast I had to laugh a little bit, and as soon as you said AMEN you were shoving a meatball in your mouth. You are too cute.

I love you.

Mommy

Dear Aidan,

My little Aidan bug.

You wear me out.

Sometimes when I feel so exhausted...so, so tired,

I have to remind myself how much I prayed for you my darling little boy.

I couldn't wait to meet you, to have you, to hold you,

to be your mommy.

To clothe you, to feed you, to be there for you whenever you needed me.

I love you my sweet little baby boy.

I must never forget how much I truly love you.

Love Forever,

Mama
