Amazed

I know that all parents think their kids are AMAZING, and I am no different.  But there are some days when I am more AMAZED than others.  Today is a day that I am especially proud to be their mom.  They are growing into such AMAZING young ladies.  We are reaching the end of a school year, and I have been reflecting on their progress this year.  Next week is full of activities....band concerts, Mother's Day picnic, Honors Banquet.  We are getting ready for the children's choir musical at church and a camp fundraiser (dessert auction).  And, we are looking forward at a pretty busy summer.  Audrey has band camp, a worship arts camp, and church camp.  Anna has sewing camp and church camp.  There are family trips and vacations as well as a lot of time in the pool.  I recap the upcoming activities because I know that we sometimes get so wrapped up in being busy that we forget to enjoy each moment.  So, my personal goal in the next weeks and months is to stop and smell the roses....to enjoy this time in my life and the lives of my kids....to take lots of pictures....to share their excitement....and for them to know that there is nothing I would rather be doing than walking this journey with them.
