Wyatt, Poop and Mother's Day!


Momma, I poop!!

This was Wyatt's greeting to me as I picked up he and Warren for their monthly sleepover with Momma Mates (the name Warren gave me when he started to talk). I should say that the sleep over is for the boys to sleep and for me to lay awake making sure they are breathing, comfortable and not peeing the bed!!! Needless to say I am ready for bed at 3:15 p.m.!!!!

Its hard for me to put into words my love for Dana and Nathan and for the grand kids. As many of you know my children did not come to me in the normal fashion, Cheryl, their mother allowed me to become their mother and to claim them as my own. All of them have brought such joy and love into my life. I have come to understand my own mother's struggle with my decision more clearly while I watch them forge ahead with their own lives (in spite of what I may want them to do). I now get to cherish loving my grand children, spoiling them with ice cream for breakfast, 4 trips to the hot tub, 3 "tubby" times, beating grandma at Mariocart and me loving cleaning up after them!! I get to do the things I wish I would have done as a mother more often while Dana and Nate were still at home!! So on this Mother's Day, once again I want to thank Cheryl and Tad for making me a mother!!!!


P.S.
Whahoo, congrats to Dana who now instead of changing diapers only has to wipe a darling little boys bottom!!!
