Dear Avery, Do You Know....

Dear Avery,

Do you know...

How much joy you bring to me? When I look at you, it is utter joy and sheer happiness. I am amazed each and every day how much more joy you bring me, even more than the day before.

Do you know....

That I would do anything for you? There is no limit to what I would do for you, if you needed me. If it meant I could shield you from pain, or protect you from harm, even if it meant me finding pain or harm myself, I would do it for you.

Do you know...

That there isn't a day that goes by that I don't thank God for giving me you? I am so honored that God picked me to be your mom and I thank Him for it, every single day.

Do you know...

How loved you are? I didn't know I could love as much as I love you. Sometimes, I feel like I am going to drive you nuts with kisses and hugs, because its all I can do not to hold you and love on you every minute of every day.

Do you know...

How much fun it is to watch you grow up? You are so entertaining, so amazing. To watch you learn to sit up, learn to talk, anything. It is my favorite thing.

Do you know...

How lucky I am? You were my very best surprise I have ever had in my whole, whole life.

Do you know...

How much I love your daddy and how much he loves you? I love him for so many reasons, and a big one is because he gave me you. And when I watch his face when he holds you and plays with you, it is pure happiness.

Do you know...

How much I am looking forward to getting to know you? You are like, the coolest person already. And it just gets better every day.

Love,

Mommy

What is Your Skin Care Regimen?

Since turning 34 this year, I've been really trying to make sure I am taking care of my skin. I have been using Cover Girl Liquid Powder for years, but it always seemed to break my neck out. And full disclosure, my face cleaning routine consisted of using Avery's baby wipes (which actually do remove eye makeup surprisingly well). So, needless to say, my skin didn't always look its best.   So, I received some gift cards for my birthday and I decided to go ahead and spring for some better products. First thing I did was get something designed to clean my face. I ordered the Olay ProX Microdermabrasion System.     This system came with the battery-operated scrubber with both a brush and foam pad, plus every day face wash and microdermabrasion wash to be used twice a week. I have really loved using this system. The beauty is that you can really use any face wash you'd like. I will probably buy a pore-reducing wash after the tube they sent me is empty. This syst

It was a very good day.

I love it when God smiles upon us. I mean, He smiles upon us all the time. But sometimes, it's like sunshine, and Christmas morning, and rainbows, and babies, and awesomeness. On steroids. And I know that those times are not always permanent, so I learn to really wrap myself in His goodness, to take it all in, be happy, and just sit back and wait to see what He is going to do in my life. We have been struggling so long. I knew it was only a matter of time before things would be OK again. Where we would feel a little stability. Where we would take all of the things we learned while struggling and apply then when times are good. We have alot of great things going on in our lives right now. Some really great things. Some amazing, mindblowing, off the grid kind of great things. I wish I could share more, but for right now, let's just say that we are incredibly blessed with some great opportunities God is putting in our lives. I leave you with a gorgeous picture of our biggest bl

Dancing With Dad

I have been working on a project these last couple of weeks for my previous company. Yesterday, I was working on my computer and heard roaring laughter coming from Avery's room. I walk in and found Jason and Avery dancing and singing away.   By sheer coincidence, this popped up on my Timehop today. Avery was only 1 in this picture. Boy, are these kiddos lucky to have such a great dad! It makes me heart melt.
