A Mother's Love

PS NOTE FROM MOMMY:
I know this is Mother's Day, and the kids are suppose to tell their Mothers why they love them. If that were my case, Frankie would say "I love my Mommy because she takes me to Wal-Mart" (I asked him.), Marianna would say "pish please", and well Reyna would just look at me bored. So instead, here are a few of the many reasons why I love my kids, as well as some of my favorite pictures of them.


I love Frankie's inquisitive nature, and his desire to learn everything around him. You have to be very careful what you say in front of this one, not only does he take up everything, but he has a great memory too. He proved this when he started singing along to "Family Tradition" by Hank Williams Jr., both Frank and I were shocked. We now only listen to Bible songs.

My greatest joy is he passion for learning about God and Jesus. He loves to go to church, and to sing church songs, he even gets out his hymnal and sings with us, or at least tries. My dear little son is always reminding me that Jesus loves me, and him. He also reminds me that Jesus is in bed with him every night, just in case I forgot. My favorite story has happened many times, when we are shopping he starts singing "Jesus Loves Me" at the top of his lungs. There is no denying that he loves Jesus, and wants everyone to know it.

My dear Marianna, she is a princess who likes to play/eat dirt. She loves to wear dresses, get her hair done, and carry her baby doll around, but if Daddy leaves for a wheeler ride, and doesn't take her, she will not be happy, & will let everyone who will is in ear shot know about it. I can't count the times that she falls down and bruises her knee, or face, unfortunately for her she is about as coordinated as her Mommy.

I love her "Little Ms. Attitude" (Little Ms. is her nickname), but what brings me the most joy is Mommy's little helper. She loves to help with Reyna in any way she can, from throwing away dirty diapers (she scrunches her nose, and says "yuck") to getting her little sister's blanket. Her first sentence was "kiss Reyna, please" I only pray that they have such a sweet relationship, as they get older.

And for my baby girl Reyna, even though she is only a couple of months old, I already know easily what I love about her. I love our cuddle time. She snuggles down, and gets so comfortable. She is the perfect size to fit, just right on my chest. I love to know that she feels so safe with me, that she can truly relax. I love even more when I hear her drift off to sleep, and can feel her breathing change.

And even though that is hard to be topped. I can hands down say, that it is my dear angel's smile that melts this Mama's heart. She is now able to recognize me, when I come in to her view her face lights up, her arms start to move, she starts to cou. These are memories, that I pray I will never forget.
