So Proud

Chase is my puzzle pro! He rocks them! He did this one by himself today. Usually puzzles are something we do together, but I looked over at him today and noticed he was putting the pieces together so fast, so I sat and let him do the whole thing. And he finished quicker than ever!

When I was a kid you couldn't have paid me to do a puzzle. They just seemed so difficult to me! And that makes me even prouder that he enjoys them so much. They are one of the few things that get my monkey to stop bouncing off the walls!

This is Olivia's little bear. It sings the ABCs. She got it for Christmas and ever since, she walks around the house with it, singing along and swaying her head side to side with the music. She sings, "ABCDE" and then makes up her own letters after that, but I am just blown away that she knows any of the letters. Chase was far from singing his ABC's at 16 months! She is our little music lover. Any time music plays she just lights up! She will instantly start dancing, and sing along. It's the cutest thing ever. And she has different little dances she does for different music. So funny! I just wanted to post this blog, because today, between the two of them, I just felt so proud of both of them, and so proud to be their Mommy! Sometimes I think I'm not where I want to be in life, or I don't have the things I wanted to have, but I know that if I wasn't exactly where I am, they wouldn't be exactly who they are. And I wouldn't trade them for the world! They are the best thing that ever happened to me, and my greatest accomplishment in life. They are my two little miracles, and I hope to always be the Mommy they deserve! I'm trying! :)
