I know God has a sense of Humor. I look at my kids and how different they all are and how different they are from me. My oldest daughter Hayley smart as a whip. (well that is just like me) . She sees things very black or white no gray a rule follower she is also shy. She is also not the most graceful child, sometimes she is just standing there and falls down. Then there is the middle one Alyssa. She also is very smart (again just like her mama). She is very popular and personable. Alyssa is also a leader and wants to be the life of the party. (not sure where she gets that). Alyssa is also our athlete she excels at every sport she does it comes very easy for her. This is also my child who is very competitive and has melt downs when she losses. This brings me to my son Brayden. He makes me laugh and cry daily. He asks a lot of questions and is very determined. He also likes to tell me he loves me 20 times a day. As we have been potty training he would rather pee outside than in the house. He also likes to sit around naked and put the soft blanket on himself. (he must get that from Bret). As I see each week fly by and once in a while slow down to look at what a gift I have in my children I wonder what God has in store for them and me. I laugh that my oldest is the opposite of me at that age but I am so very grateful that she is. Alyssa can have me so angry in seconds but I know she will never be pushed around and I don’t worry about people picking on her. I’m not sure yet about Brayden at this point he just wants to have lots of buddies and go on a pirate ship. I try not to take credit for all the great things my children do because than I have to take credit for the not so great things. I love being a mom and am so thankful for the job.
