Thankful.

I am so thankful that I have two sweet kiddos and one little baby in my belly. I feel very blessed. Yesterday was a really special day. First, as I was waiting in the hall to pick up Luke after school, his teacher made a special trip out to talk to me. She told me how wonderful Luke was doing in class and also how he'd befriended the new girl in the class. She was very proud of him. And so am I. Love that sweet sweet boy.

Then, Emma started Spring semester at dance yesterday afternoon. After class Miss Mindy said Emma did a great job in class, but she went on to say that she always does. :) so proud. Emma's class this semester seems a bit more wild than it was last semester... more younger girls I think. Funny to think Emma is one of the "older" girls now. Time flies.

Finally, last night I was laying in bed with my hands on my stomach waiting to feel sweet Johns baby move a bit. I've been feeling flutters and little moves for a couple weeks now. But as I lay very still I felt baby completely turn... the biggest movement so far... I told Andy to put his hands on my tummy and he actually felt it too. It brought tears to my eyes. It's the best, most comforting feeling in the World to feel your sweet baby moving around. I just love it.

I have been blessed with now three wonderful kiddos. Thanks God for all those special little moments yesterday. I couldn't have enjoyed them more. I love being a mom... there truly is no greater gift.
