My boys are growing up. Teddy will be 2 years old on Sunday. Christian will be 4 on Christmas Day. How is that possible? I've been looking at pictures of the boys when they were babies, and it is just incredible how much we, as humans, learn and grow and change within the first few years of life. It's so dramatic to me. I feel the weight of the responsibility of being their mother. Sometimes it's scary, but more often than not, I feel that it is such an honor that the Lord has shared these beautiful gifts with Chad and I. I know that they are not mine. They are God's. And it is incredible to me that the has entrusted me, and Chad, with these two amazing people. They are people, unique individuals, who, God willing, will grow up and do amazing things. I know that this post seems to be a bit "gushy", but some days, it just blows my mind- this role that I have, as the mother of Christian and Teddy.

"Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,
The fruit of the womb is a reward."
Psalm 127:3
