Sweet little guy(s)

Saturday morning was beautiful! I laid on the porch swing while my little Jared rocked it back and forth, constantly checking to make sure he wasn't pushing me too high. I couldn't help but smile, inside and out, at his sweet kindness. All of the sudden, he acted like he had the most brilliant idea and blurts out, "I'm going to give you a BIG KISS!" I started to pucker my lips, when he all the sudden started backing up exclaiming that this was going to give me the BIGGEST KISS EVER! He backed up all the way to the sidewalk and started running full speed right at me, his lips puckered the whole way. Then he planted the biggest kiss ever right on his mama's lips.
I love Jared so much and am so grateful for the many perfect moments I get with him everyday! I can never fully and adequately describe the love I have for my for boys!

Paul runs and gives me hugs multiple times a day. He smiles kindly and full of love. It brightens my day! He thanks me all the time for simple things like putting away the dishes and washing his clothes. Paul is my go to for garbage duty and is so willing to just take care of things. . . Like the chickens. He waters the yard and puts 110% effort in all his school work. I am so grateful for Paul and love him so very much! He is constantly outpouring his love to me!

I don't know where I would be without this Bryan boy! He loves to snuggle me and hug me and tells me all the time how much he loves me! He has the biggest smile that melts me and he has a very contagious giggle that fills our home with sunshine. He is a peace maker who strives to hard to do what he thinks is best. I love that he is so unique in his attitude and personality. Bryan is forgiving and carefree. His free spirit is admirable! Oh how I love you my Bryan! I love you more than you love me ;)

Then there's my Hyrum. Oh Hyrum, my right hand man! He is so very kind to me in every possible way. Constantly asking what he can do to help me. Always making chocolate milk for me and his brothers, or serving ice cream. He is caring. Always asking me to rate my day between 1-10 and asking, "How can I make it better?" He is defensive of me. Hyrum has go power! If he has his mind set on something, he will achieve it. What an amazing little man he's becoming! I love you more then chocolate Hyrum!

I wonder everyday how in the world I ended up with 4 crazy, rowdy, loving boys that show so much love and respect for me! My heart feels so connected to theirs. They are everything to me. I love them infinity.

My warning to all PokéMOMS

If your home looks something like this:

Or possibly this:

Or even this:

I HAVE TO WARN YOU.

If you show any interest AT ALL, you will be asphyxiated with this:

And this:

A WHOLE LOT of this:

And, for some surreptitious reason, the happiest of smiles and the twinkliest of eyes.

You really must ask yourself, "Am I up for the challenge?" Trust me, at some point I can't help but endorse the decision to do so. Proceed with caution. With the good of the smiles, comes the ugliest of cards
