Stronger than any coffee

I was a coffeholic, I could drink up to 8 large cups of black coffee each day. During 3rd and the last year of university, I used to take 5 courses and 2 jobs so I literally depended on coffee to not walk like a zombie. A few years later, I quitted completly for my husbend and my Heavenly Father but I realized it was only for my own good. Another few years later, I was blessed to be a mother of 2 wonderful children. I admit that there were few moments I desperately wanted some coffee or even Latte would do. I truly have great admiration to my dear mom friends who have raised 3 to 6 amazing children. I confess that there were days I simply want to return to my career and have the professionals to watch my kids. However, with my Father's blessings and confirmation, I feel previlaged to raise my kiddos. One of my secret weapon was I have something that is stronger than coffee and here they are:

and more and more...

and I also get a huge boost when:

~when I pick Mason up from school, the moment he spots me he'd run to me so fast and yell out Mommy

~when Isabelle runs to my bed and gives me hugs and kisses after James gets her out of the crib

~when they are both up from a nap, they need to snuggle with me

~when Mason comes to me and tells me how much he loves me for no reason

~when Isabelle comes to me and just wants me to "hold you (her)"

~when Mason says, "thanks Mommy, its so yummy." during meal time

~when Isabelle feeds herself but gives a smile with every bite she takes

~when they come to me for a group hugs

~when they keep asking for each other when they don't see the other

and more and more and more, I believe I have an endless supply of super coffee to keep me going and feel blissful. I just love my children!!!
