Little People

Jeff and I have been walking around the house the last couple of weeks in shock.  We can't believe, at the end of this month, that Ian is going to turn 7 and Sam is going to be 4.   Seriously, where has the time gone?  It seems like only yesterday we were bringing a 5 pound, little baby girl home from the hospital and introducing her to her big brother.  Our kids are no longer babies or even toddlers for that matter.  These little people are full-fledged children. 

You get so caught up in the day-to-day that you don't realize another year has gone by.  And another, and another.  Before you know it, you are now parents to a 7 year old and 4 year old.  Absolutely crazy!  Our two kids couldn't be more different from each other.  Seeing their personalities develop and who they take after has been highly entertaining.  What fascinating little people we get to love and adore!

Each year, we've been fortunate to do more with the kids as they are able to experience new things and explore new interests.  Seeing life through their eyes is never dull and boring.  I absolutely treasure the good times and patiently wait out the more challenging times knowing it is just a stage.

Having children is a blessing.  And being parents to Ian and Sam are two blessings I thank G-d for every day.  Ages 4 and 7?  I'm ready for you.  Let me just enjoy the rest of the month of them being 3 and 6 first.
