A Moment of Joy

My kids are the greatest. Yes, I am their mother so I can say that. Let me tell you why I think they are so wonderful. Tonight, while I was preparing dinner, Braxton came over and wanted to help. It was potato night so there was nothing to it really. It really wasn't a lot of work. As I was pulling out the cheese Braxton said, "Let me shred that for you mom. You don't need to worry about it." Seriously, that made my heart full of gratitude.


Well since Sammy saw that Braxton was helping she felt the need to help out too. She went and grabbed the plates and put them on the table. She picked up Clarissa and put her in her chair as well.



Even my little Tayden had to get in on the action. He got my attention and said, "Mom, I put watow(water) in your cup." He had such a great big boy smile when he told me that.


I sure love my kids. It really did make my heart full of joy! How can you not feel like you have the best kids after a moment like that!?!?!
