Lasting Love;

I couldn't help myself, my house is still decorated with little hearts, reds, pinks and whites. Why? partially because I am slightly lazy and the other half I just LOVE, Love! I don't want to take them down, I am determined to celebrate Valentine's day for the entire month of February! How am I to accomplish this? Lots of candies, cut out hearts, sugar cookies decorated in red frosting, love letters every day to Travis and a playlist of the gushiest love songs known through time. Call me crazy and I will happily thank you.

Moments to Cherish

It's a quiet evening. The curtains have been drawn, laundry folded, Boston's toys put away and the dish washer is humming softly in the back ground. Boston is playing quietly and content, his tired eyes signaling me that it's almost time to lay him down for bed. Travis is home safe now, finally able to relax and enjoying a foreign film.

These are the moment's I cherish. Nothing out of the ordinary, but completely extraordinary. Funny how everything fits naturally right where it's at. This moment is perfect and I wouldn't change it for the world.

Letter to Boston

Jeremiah 29:11

"For I know the Plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

My darling son,
I've loved you from the moment I discovered your existence, I love everything about you. I love you so much that I made a promise to you, to your father, myself and to the Lord: I promise I will always be here for you, to love and hold you, guide you and teach you right from wrong. I swear to you that I will support you in every decision you make, encourage you to be yourself and take risks.  I will show you how to love and how to forgive, how to be a team player and how to let go and live.  I can be here for you to fix your problems for now but I promise I will step aside to let you fix them yourself. I will always be here to offer my advice but I promise I will let you make mistakes so that you may learn for yourself the meanings behind them. There will be days when your life is dark and it may feel like no one is on your side, but I promise you son, I am on your side. I will celebrate with you all your accomplishments and great mile stones in life. I will grieve with you when you fall and I will always, always be here to lend you a hand and help you back up again. I Promise.


Forever & Always, 
Mom
