Have you ever heard another mom say how happy they are that their children are starting back to school, because their children have worn them out? I have to admit I have said this statement before. It should make us sad when we hear these comments. I understand that children can be difficult, that they can get on our nerves at times. Really, I do understand! But....can't we all be difficult at times? These things are not just limited to children.
Even though I get weary at times, I love being with my boys! It is one of my favorite places to be. I enjoy their company, their smiles, their laughter. I am so thankful for the family God chose to bless me with.
Jake, my oldest son, is 14 years old and just started high school. Drew, my youngest son, is 9 years old and just started 4th grade. It seems like just yesterday I brought them home from the hospital. My, my, my how time flies! I'm so glad to share these fleeting, precious moments with them, and I look forward to seeing the people God is shaping them to be.
Blessings,
Dalinda
How well I know how time flies! I have one entering 5th, one in 9th, and one moved off to college for the first time (she's a sophomore, but it's her first year away). Children are definitely a blessing, and I don't think I will ever be ready to see them go. No matter how crazy they make me!
