With Mother's Day being next weekend I thought I would let everyone know how blessed I feel being a mother. To know that My Heavenly Father has blessed me with Benson, Britton, Taylor and Ava as someone to teach them and guide them in this life. That thought brings me overwhelming joy.
I have learned that every little spirit already comes with their own little personality. That NO child is bad, just curious and interested in the world around them.
Benson is now 4 and still on the go 100% of the time. I still have to be constantly aware of where he is and what he is doing. He still has an amazing mind and still takes everything apart and amazingly enough can put it back together. Puzzles fascinate him and he can sit and do them for hours on end. At school they call him Benson the Brain and his Head Teacher is convinced that he will be a scientist.
Britton is now 3 and can change personalities in a blink of an eye. He is so sweet and happy, and wants to be just like Benson. He will read his books all day if I let him, but then when would he eat? AND HE LOVES TO EAT! Anything and everything, he is not picky whatsoever.
Taylor and Ava are turning two on June 11Th and I am flying out for their Bday party. They are starting to put words together and forming little sentences and thoughts. Ava is FOR SURE the head of the duo, but Taylor seems content to let her lead as he sits back and just smiles and is happy with the world around him. I can not wait to get out east and develop a stronger relationship with them!
I really hope to have at least one more. I know five will be a challenge, but I think that with Dan being a mother will bring the joy of what a family can be to a whole new level and I am really looking forward to that!
I love my children, I cherish them. Now I also cry because of them and tear my hair out and constantly pray patience, but I would not have it any other way. It is the perfect life!

You are such a good mommy too!!! I love your kiddos so much, even the little ones far away and the ones not even born yet. I just love them all. I am excited that this Mother's Day I will have my sister here and we will be able have mother's day together with our mom. I can't think of a harder job in the world but you are amazing at what you do. Benson, Britton, Taylor, and Ava are so lucky!!!!!
You are an inspiration. I'm just learning what you have known for 4 years now, that motherhood is joyful, terrifying, exasperating, fun. You seem to handle it all so well. I'm sure it helps that your kids are so cute.
