My Oldest Son

Good morning everyone! I hope you are doing well today and I hope you slept well. God is so good and I am grateful for a new day to share His love with all. Last night I was woke up quite a few times with pain and also by my youngest boys. They either needed a bottle, needed to be changed or I got kicked. Lol. I was so exhausted but finally got the chance to sleep for a bit when I feel a tap on my shoulder. UGH, what now?!? My oldest son looked at me with tears in his eyes and said I had a nightmare and I'm scared. I told him to pray and then watch a cartoon until he fell back to sleep. And then he said it..."I am so glad you are my mom and I love you." Moments like THAT made no sleep totally worth it!! And the pain in my mouth FINALLY gave me some relief so I am feeling better this morning-thank God and thank y'all for praying and for good thoughts. I am very grateful. Just a little pressure left but the throbbing pain has diminished. And there is a beautiful breeze outside that feels lovely as well! =) How is your day starting out?

What a sweet thing for your son to tell you-what would our lives ever be without our precious children? I am glad that your tooth pain is letting up, it sounds like everything that you are doing is right.

Awww, that was so sweet of him, and I hope he slept better. I'm glad you're feeling some relief from your mouth pain. My day has been alright. I took my best friend's son to take his kindergarten placement test since she had to work, and now we're watching Sing with my nieces.

@LovingMyBabies I can't nap because if I do, I feel like a zombie the rest of the day.

No matter how stressful it is raising kids, there is always that one moment that our kids say or do something that makes the struggles totally worth it. It wasn't easy raising my own kids, but I wouldn't trade it for the world! I could never imagine my life without my kids. They are truly a blessing! Glad to hear your pain has subsided a bit.
