Warning: this momma's heart is about to burst with joy, memories, disbelief that time has really flown, pride, more joy! Rylan and Jacob turn 7 today! I really cannot believe that they are 7... it seems like yesterday that I was laying in that hospital bed, praying they would stay put until September 1!!! But they came at 31 weeks, on a Tuesday morning, QUITE expectedly unexpected! And I blinked and they are 7...
I am so proud of Rylan and Jacob. First and foremost, they love God, Jesus and the Bible. They have hidden MUCH of God's Word in their heart and I claim that they will never depart from it! I am so proud of the way they follow the rules, seek to be peace-makers, are genuinely kind to others, and they way that they love each other. Being an only child, I always dreamed of what it would be like to have a sibling... and I see the perfect relationship between these boys. They fiercely defend each other and love each other.
I love their love of US and TX history. I love that they still play with trains, army men, pretend food. Books are their favorite toy... and any kind of weapon! hahaha They watch Backyardigans as if they are in a trance. They love all sports and are quite athletic. They are both above level in reading and math and the writing is right where it should be. I love that they set up museums and give tours to us. I love that they sit for hours and narrate Star Wars battles as they act them out. I love that they shoot hoops in the backyard until their faces are red. I love that they behave good in public and private. I love their loud, belly laughs and high-pitched squeals. I love their sense of adventure and fun. There is never a dull moment around this house!
Happy birthday to my precious boys!!! There is no greater joy than being your momma!
