Thoughts!

So I came across this poem the other day and it really hit me how much my kids are growing up and how there are so many things now that Im starting to miss with them especially these last few difficult years that our family has had to endure, This should be an important time in their lives and instead of enjoying these teenage years with them they are dealing with all these trials and tribulations of seperation and divorce, It breaks my heart to see what the challenges that they are being faced with. As I read this Poem, I thought to myself, thats all I want for my children is to love and protect them and laugh with them and build memories with them and not SWEAT the small stuff, I know I'll always treasure and love the clutter and messes and fingerprints, skateboards, muddy shoes, video games & dirty clothes left on the floor from my kids as they grow because they are growing up soo fast and before you know it they will be gone! I want my home to be a fun, happy home for my children and their friends where they can come and feel comfortable & laugh and play and I want them to have fun and enjoy life because thats what life is all about!!! I love you kiddos and hope you always know that!!! Love your Mom
