Five years ago I met Jeff and we KNEW from very early on in our relationship that we were meant to be together. I never dreamed I would find such an amazing person to spend my life with. A year and a half later we were shocked to find out we were pregnant with TWINS!!!! What a blessing--we were so excited! I always wanted to have babies and be able to stay home with them. We have definitely sacrificed to make this happen, but we would not change it for the world. I feel so blessed to be able to enjoy my kiddos and have so much time with them while they are little.
We have a new reward system at our house and the kids can earn beads for excellent behavior, lose a bead for bad behavior and they are never allowed to "ask" for a bead...if they ask for one, they automatically don't get it. So, when Reese or Collin get 10 beads in their jar, they get special one on one time with either Jeff or me and they can choose to do something fun, such as go to the park, ride bikes, bowl, movies, etc. Collin finally earned his 10 beads after about 3 weeks, and he chose to go bowl with me. So, we went to Main Event. We had such a good time, we bowled, ate dinner and played games. I could tell Collin really enjoyed himself (so did I) and ate up all of the individual attention. What a fun night!
You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore.... but let there be spaces in your togetherness and let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
