I have many different roles but the general names I am known as is wife and mom. I love my family and do my best to do my best. I do not claim to be perfect but I always strive to be so even though I know I never will be. I love God and want to live to please Him. I do not claim to be a great representation of Christ but I do serve Him. I have my ups and my downs; on the other side of each mountain is another valley, I walk through both.

One of many best parts of being a MOM!
My almost 11 month old woke up from her nap earlier this afternoon and I hear her starting to cry and holler, "mama, mamama, mama!" I walk in there and she waves when I come in she says, "mama, mama". Then when I pick her up she gives me a big hug by grabbing my shoulders and laying her head on my shoulder while saying, "aaawww". Then she leans back, looks at me, then on my cheek plants that open-mouthed-slobbering kiss little ones always give, then pulls back again and smiles great big! Even though I may have spent three hours on the phone being frustrated about a big mess with the new health insurance plans and providers, even though I hadn't yet accomplished a fraction of what I wanted to, even though the day was chaotic, when your child gives you all that love everything else goes out the window!

Awww...that's so sweet! I've always felt that kids can sense your irritation and frustration, they try to soothe it in the only way they know how -- hugs and kisses. There has been many days where I've been thinking and getting myself depressed, my son will just walk over, sit on my lap and give me the biggest hug and the sloppiest kiss he could give. It always brings me back to normal. He just exudes love and compassion.
