Not quite a memory, but just a random blog

Tonight I kissed my children goodnight. I kissed their heads gently and softly whispered, "I love you." I caressed their baby soft faces and soaked in the moment.

Ohhhh, how I love these children! They are my everything!

They have been testing the waters lately. Having a bit of sibling rivalry. Talking back just a little bit more. Trying to see what our reactions might be. We are frustrated. We are trying to be patient. We are trying to be consistent. But, oh is it ever hard, challenging and frustrating.

We love these children with all of our hearts and we are trying to train them to go out into the world. We want them to be good citizens. We want them to be respectful. We want them to love, to care and to be thoughtful.

"Dear Lord, please help us get through this trying time. Help us to train our children in the way that they should go. Guide us. Teach us. Give us patience."

Tonight I kissed my children goodnight and thanked the Lord for another wonderful day!

A Walk to Remember

For as long as I can remember, I have had an impeccable memory. I can remember even the smallest details of special events, days that truly impacted me and days that I would like to forget.

Here I will share memories of my childhood. Memories that have made me who I am. Memories that will be forever with me. I realize that we must not dwell on the past, but memories are what I live for. Memories are what I am creating everyday for my family. How I live my life to day, will forever be imbedded into my own children's memories. How I lived yesterday, is how I became who I am today.

Please bear with me, as not everything will make sense or be grammatically correct. The point is to share these stories with my family, so that one day they can share them with their own children.
