Snowed in!

It has been a wonderful 2 days at home with Addie and kind of with Raymond. Raymond is working nights so he was home but asleep the entire time. Addison and I on the other hand were not sleeping but playing hard! We took full advantage of the fact that our car was snowed into the garage and didn't even bother to shovel ourselves out!

As a first time mom, I can't believe how much I love what God has called me to do. He has asked me to be a mommy to this wonderful, kind hearted little girl, and I gladly accept! She knows so much and has a heart of gold when she wants to! The little things she does for me, just like curling up in my chair and saying "mommy, I love you". Of course there are times when my patience are tested to the max. But even then, I know God is saying to me.... "this is just a taste of what you did to your mom and this too shall pass". Sometimes I think he does this just so that I can, once again, call my mom and tell her how much I love her and how thankful I am that she didn't put me up for adoption when I was 2!!

We are back to work and school now and are even more anxious for spring to get here. But we are thankful for the little vacations we get to just be home and be a family. Thank you God for snow days!!!
