From the Mouth of Babes

I had the worse day on Tuesday! MB woke me up at 5am, Baby C woke me up a few others times through the night, Hubby H (hehe) kept me up late (as per usual!)... boiling down to one tired and GRUMPY mom!
This was probably the grumpiest I've ever been with my child or even in my life, i'm not sure... but I stayed up with her so that Hugh could sleep, and tried surviving but was definitely lacking many needful 'mom qualities'!
I felt like every few seconds I was snapping at her - don't touch my face! -stop whining, do you need to go back to bed?! - quiet! if you wake up daddy and the baby you are going to be in trouble!
I'm ashamed to say that I pushed it too far, but this child brought me to repent when she bowed her head and starting praying "Heavenly Father , *sigh*, thank you for this day, and thank you for it, help me be good and happy, name of Jesus Jesus Christ, amen"
What can a Mom do after that? I felt awful, but grateful for the sweet spirit Heavenly Father sent to me, to help me, to teach me!
My Angel!

Proud Moments

I have the most amazing Husband! We take turns doing lessons for our children every Monday (Family Home Evening Night) and this Monday he was incredible! I felt so proud - and I know he enjoyed it so much!
So his topic - Teeth - he got all excited and then disappeared downstairs for a while.  Here's what he came up with:



He's so talented, and MB loved every minute of germ killing :)  I'm a happy mama and proud wife!
