Mommy! Mommy!

Never again will those words mean the same to me!  Friday night while our family was out to eat, we had a couple sitting beside us whom we noticed gave us frequent glances and smiles.  We figured it was because of our usual crazy commotion that accompanies our crew.  Not to mention, we had an extra kid with us so we were probably even crazier than usual!  ( if that's possible!)  But before the couple left, they stopped at our table and said, "You can not imagine what those words Mommy!  Mommy! mean"  They told us that the lady had a brain tumor in 1995 and since then they had to give up their hope to have children.  Oh how they wished they could hear those same words!  Ashley and I both thanked them for the reminder and their words are still embedded in my mind tonight!

So today as the girls ran to me screamming, "Mommy, Mommy she hit me!"   Mommy! Mommy! please fix me another snack"  Mommy! Mommy! I don't feel good" - today I remembered a lady who longed to hear those same words and thanked God for the blessing of these two wild, crazy, misbehaved at times, dramatic little girls who call me Mommy!  


















Proud to be called their Mommy!   :)
