One of those moments...

I glanced in the back seat while driving Maya and myself to church this morning(Ben was already there setting up music stuff) and she grinned at me in her little fruit sundress with a pink star bead necklace around her neck, a pink jelly bracelet on her arm, pink strawberry sandels and topped off with her sparkle blue sunglasses. She said "Can you turn on My Heart is Set on You, please"(a great peppy little worship tune on the Girls of Grace cd) So I did and glanced back at her again as she bopped her little head to the beat, singing to herself while looking out the window. I teared up with an immense flooding of love for my little person in the back seat and thought I couldn't love her anymore than I did right then at that second. I mean I could, but that's the closest I can get to the feeling that I had. It's overwhelming the gifts that we are given. I think being a mommy is the greatest!

Aren't children such a beautiful gift?! I have been crying with love over Sarah for three days now (just got back from camp on Friday...).

Miss you!

and she was looking extra special cute yesterday! Your words describe as close as you can get to that feeling. I never thought I would be a mom -and I think it's an amazing gift! I wouldn't trade it for the world!

I love those sweet and precious moments that our girlies give us.

I am TOTALLY looking forward to the time when Emma is old enough to attend the GOG event. I'm off to buy the CD. :)

being a mommy is amazing! especially with those types of moments!!

As for SYTYCD, I am having a hard time choosing this season. I've been impressed with Pasha because he's done so much more than any other "ballroom" dancer this season. I love Sabra! She is adorable and so hard to believe she's only been dancing for 4 years!!
