a blog that helps me be a better mother

whenever i've had a long day. i'm tired. grouchy. and ready to bawl in the shower, i read
i'm reminded of how lucky i am that i have my babies here on earth to annoy me;
to make ketchup handprints on the garage wall,
hide play dough in my shoes,
feed the dog rice so that he pukes on the carpet.
that at the end of the day i can snuggle with my babies.
watch their little chests rise & fall
stroke their soft faces
count their eyelashes
listen to the sweet sound of their gentle snores.

is a heartbreaking reminder to me to always be grateful for my babies.

Mike & Heather
I can not even begin to imagine the sorrow.
and i won't pretend that the pain i feel while reading your story is even a mere fraction of the pain you experience daily.
in fact i can't even type out all what i want to say because my tears are blurring my vision.
i don't know you. and i've only read about your sweet Maddie.
but i read your blog faithfully.
and i'm grateful that you share it with the masses.
you've taught me to slow down and enjoy my children.
play more.
take more pictures.
and above all
never take them for granted.
it hurts my heart that you even had to experience such a devastating loss.

congrats on your newest blessing.
i wish you nothing but peace and comfort.
