Reflections

Sorry this is long, but these are the thoughts going on in my life right now, from different circumstance.

Tim's brother AJ (he only has one) got engaged a couple weeks ago, to a great girl Katie or so she seems (only met her once) We're so happy for them and are so glad to be adding another Married Couple to the mix. After 2 years and a few months we're glad we will no longer be the only ones married. Although we will be the only ones with a child for a while I'm sure.

Seeing them be engaged and getting ready to attend a wedding reminds me a lot of when Tim and I got engaged and all the joy and excitement I had around that time, to be marrying my best friend. He still is my best friend and the one I tell everything too. He takes me at my best and worse times, and trust me some of the worst times I'm not so nice to be around. But still loves me and takes care of me and our son. I love that he is so willing to go to school and get an education and to work so that I can stay home with Kenneth and make sure he gets all the love and attention he needs.

I love the stage that Tim and I are at and when I look at all the fun times my single friends are having I do wonder what life would entail if Tim and I had never met. But seeing my handsome guy and getting one of his great smiles flashed my way I'm so glad we did meet and that I get the privilege to spend the rest of my life and beyond with him. Plus getting a great smile from Kenneth, when he won't smile at anyone else makes my day, and luckily I get those great smiles 100+ times a day.

I had a close friend ask me how I like being a mother and I told her, that I love it, because I really do. This is what I was meant to do. I know sounds silly but I can't imagine doing anything else with my life. I'm glad that I have the chance to be a stay at home mom and help Kenneth grow into a great man. I go to school only for the purpose of having an education for just in case I need it in the future, hoping that I never do.

I look forward to having more children to bless our lives with joy and love. I have since Kenneth was little not even 2 months old, been okay with the idea of becoming pregnant again, even though in reality we don't plan on that one for a while. I often wonder if it's Heavenly Father's way of letting me know that Kenneth is not the only baby that we'll bring into our lives. Having watched my fair share of kids, and multiple kids at that I know I can handle a few more children and will be loving every minute of it.
