Three years ago I remember getting the phone call from Dr. D to let me know we were pregnant. What a way to celebrate my "first" Mother's Day. After months and months of infertility treatments, this was indeed the best news I could get that weekend. Now I am sitting here with two little blessings at the kitchen table. Peyton coloring with her crayons and Brinley eating her Cheerios...or I should say holding the O's for Mr. B to get and giggling as he nibbles them from her fingers.
God has been good to me. Not only was I blessed once with our miracle baby, Peyton, he gave us a second surprise, Brinley. I can't imagine my life without them. God is good and I am thankful for what He has given me. I often sit and wonder what our girls are going to be when they grow up. Like all parents, I want the best for them and I want them to aspire to be great things. The other night I was asking Peyton if she was going to be Doctor Peyton or Nurse Peyton or Teacher Peyton or Astronaut Peyton and she kept giggling and telling me no. Finally said, "I'm Peyton!!!" Yes she is...and she always will be Peyton. She is bold, smart, silly and caring. What a fantastic two year old I have. And as we watch Brinley grow into herself we wonder what traits she is going to have. Determined, loud and happy come to mind right now. We will wait and see.
Happy Mommy's Day to you all out there!
