Lately, I have really come to appreciate how precious time is. It seems like just yesterday that both of my little ladies were brand new, and just coming home from the hospital. I used to think that it was so cliche when people would say how quickly time flies, but I have come to realize that it truly does. I realized the other night when I was snuggling with one of my sick little ladies, that the things I love the most about spending time with them are really the most mundane of things. Giving them baths with Popsicles when they are sick or just watching their faces light up when they have accomplished something that is difficult for them. Little things, I know, but precious nonetheless. Today, as I woke up from another day long nap, I looked out my front window and saw the sweetest sight.
My sweet husband works all day all the while taking care of me and all of my needs. He takes care of the house work (with the help of my sweet angel friends) cooks us dinner, does homework with the girls, and still finds time to have an after school picnic and card game......
He makes pancake Birthday Cakes for my little ladies stuffed animals' birthdays...
And makes the
coolest castles for our little Wickett:)
As I watch my sweet husband with my little girls, I can't help but feel grateful to have a husband that truly understands how precious these few moments are. I feel infinitely blessed that these sweet girls are so lucky to have the most amazing man as their father. I love you Eric.
