(Schades 6 and 3 Years Old) Wednesday Jan, 24th 2018

Dear little ones,

 The day hasn't started yet, but I wanted to take a second and say how proud I am to be your mom. Every morning you come downstairs and lay in bed with me for a little while we watch an episode or two from your favorite Netflix cartoons. Then we get moving to the kitchen where we share breakfast. After a while you both go upstairs to play before we get dressed and ready for the day. Because both of you have school in the afternoon our mornings are slow and quiet. I am really going to miss them next year when both of you start school in the morning. It will probably be a whirlwind of activity to get you both out the door on time.

And while I look forward to watching you learn and grow, it always breaks my heart a little knowing our time and these moments are so fleeting. You are both such bright lights in my day, and I love you so much. It is such a blessing waking up each morning knowing I get to care for you, love you, help you, lift you, and watch you do the same. Over the last few months it has been especially rewarding watching you become closer friends who look out for each other and genuinely want to spend time together. In fact, just yesterday Blake, you made dino bones out of paper to hide around the house for Ev to find. My heart was a puddle. You were so thoughtful and patient and kind with each other. Moments like that just make my world go round, and I am so glad they are no longer few and far between. I can see you love each other a little more every day. What an amazing life!

Love you,
 Mama
