The best things


I love being a mom. I spend so much time just looking at Kathrynne. Watching her, admiring her, and looking in wonderment to think that she is my own. I spent so many years of my life "mothering" other children -- caring for my siblings, working as a mother's helper, babysitting, and so forth that it is hard to believe that she is actually mine. It's the most wonderful thing! I'm so blessed and I never want to take her for granted or be too busy for her. There are many good things in life to do, but I never want them to crowd out the best things in life -- raising up the next generation for the glory of God!

I love just looking at our 5 month old as well. Babies are truly mircales from so many points of view.

I definately can't believe how fast kids grow

Crystal, how much does Kathrynne weigh? I have a tiny 15 month old and I am always getting comments on how tiny he is, but Kathrynne looks little too, so I was just wondering!

I know how you feel!

I have got to figure out how to use my digital camera so I can send pictures of my little man over the net to my friends. I have had the stupid thing for almost two years and still don't know how to use it.

Kathrynne is adorable! I also have a five month old brokenmessenger. It is so fun to see them grow and learn new things. My little one has just discovered her voice. She likes to squeal now. It is really cute! As long as she doesn't take it up when she's mad.

Just precious Crystal! Cherish EVERY moment, it passes so quickly! My oldest daughter turned 15 Monday (you can see her and her Daddy at www.highergroundtoday.com under blog/events), my son is 17 and graduating in May, and our baby is 11 :( It is a very bitter sweet thing. We have so much to be thankful for!

Thanks for sharing!!!

I just got home from running errands with my 12 yo son. He is such a joy to be with. The investment into their lives will reap rich rewards!

Crystal, your daughter is a beauty. I enjoy your blog. Keep keeping on!

She's SO Worth it isn't she? I can't wait to have a child of my own someday. They are truly a blessing from God.
