The sun will come up.....

This is not the best picture but it will work....... I ran across some quotes on another blog the other day and saved them all because I thought they were interesting. As I have thought about what these said I thought I could relate a picture to each one. So here is what my brain came up with..... Yes this is what I love!!! So that is what I do!! Hear me Roar!! I AM MOTHER!!

This was taken many days ago, probably 4 years to be exact and it is still my most favorite picture of this little girl!!

There are times when she finds it hard to be happy with who she is because she thinks she is to tall or too big. She has a hard time seeing the potential she holds!! I see a beautiful young girl who loves her family and friends and has the biggest heart. I also see someone who was sent to be my daughter and best little girl friend!!!

This too was taken a long time ago. This picture makes me think of when he would run around and giggle to his hearts content.

Dawson is rather hard on himself at times and that is very hard to see as a parent. He has great potential to do anything but he lets peoples opinions influence what he thinks. Not in bad ways, but in ways that would hold him back from doing what he loves and accomplishing them. He is a great young man who needs to see what I see which is someone who can accomplish anything he sets out to do no matter what anyone else says!!

This was from Braedon's first year in boys baseball. He looked so big then to me but now looks like just a little guy!!

Braedon has no troubles doing what he loves.....which is baseball, basketball and football. The problem is he runs out of motivation. He is very much a kid who needs to see what is at the end of the tunnel before he will go through. He wants to know what is in this for him, even if it is just a little something. He needs to realize there are lots of hills and bumps but you can't loose focus on the end goal which is to NOT give up. I have seen glimpses of it, so I know it is in there somewhere but trying to get him to see it is the hard part. So I guess he will just have to try and remember to keep trying!!!

Being a mom is the hardest and most rewarding thing there is in the world. There are days when I think I want to throw in the towel and walk away. Other days I can't imagine my life without them. All I know for sure is that no matter how frustrating a day can be they go to sleep at the end of it and there is a new beginning tomorrow when the sun comes up. Ready for a new chance to teach them, love them, laugh with them or become a better parent!!!
