Thankful Thursday

This week I am especially thankful for individual time with my kids. It doesn't always work out where I get a lot of time with one of them without the other one around too (which is fine), but this week it has worked out for me to enjoy dinner with each of them individually!! It was such a reminder to me about how much I love each one of their personalities and listening to their stories. Reece makes me laugh. That kid is so funny and quick witted. He is always joking which he gets from his father! I loved listening to him tell me about the great interceptions he made a recess this week and did I see any of them... : ) I am blessed to teach at the same school with him and he is in the grade I teach so I am out at recess with him. I must say I did see 2 of the interceptions and he reports their were actually 5!! He makes me smile! Ashlyn is wonderful! She is always full of stories that take place at school. I mean, she is in jr. high so these stories go on for a while! The way she tells them makes me laugh!! I am so glad we are close enough that she will spend time with me and share the goings on at school. She is so sweet and very helpful! She also makes me smile. I am so proud of the girl she is!! God has really shown me the past few days how important it is to SLOW DOWN and enjoy all the little moments! I am so thankful for these great kids and I am crazy about them! I look forward to the new stories tomorrow!
