favorite moments.

today, this was my very favorite moment.
pre-nap cuddles that turned into wrestling somehow. this must be a boy thing?
their love for each other continues to amaze me. I do love having little boys. My sisters are my very best friends and these brother boys? They are best friends too. I pray this will always remain. Our joys.


our morning was double booked. OT then dentist-and first time flying solo (nani has always been here for dentist trips) Well I'm happy to report....there were only tears during the cleaning. Pre and Post? Happy boys! Music/Headphones/OT did the trick for C I think.

 my favorite thing about the visit? dr. mike gave me a supermom sticker! yeah, I kinda rocked it :) lol. I was proud of the boys and proud of me too!! Have I mentioned how much I adore their pediatric dentist? He actually hugged Caleb at the end. Lucas bit him during the cleaning and dr. mike...smiled. Yep, He's a saint in my book.

2 Corinthians 12:9 "And my Grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness" ...For Christ's sake, for when I am weak, then I am strong"  
 
my other favorite moment? running in the rain. It was short, I'm still trying to work my way back up to 3 miles...I'm at 2. But it was needed. I inhaled sweet rain scent and relaxed. I love the smell of sweet, fresh, misty rain. Swimming or running in it...even better :) I came home and giggled with the boys while they hugged and wrestled and I felt very blessed. Just another day, full of some hard moments, but full of happy moments too :)

Happy Wednesday!

  2. Taking O to the dentist in April. It will be his first trip. I'm a little nervous. So glad to hear that your boys did well! :)

    1. I hope it goes well for him. Caleb's been a few other times, this is the best he has done. Listening to music really kept him calm I noticed. If O likes listening to music I would suggest letting him listen while there ;) It seemed to do the trick for us!
