Splash in the Rain Puddles

Today I want to say "Happy Anniversary!"  to my very best friend....my hubby....my partner.... There is no other person I would rather be sharing life with.  You are so many things to me but most importantly a wonderful husband to me and daddy to our boys.  And you also should receive a reward.....a medal of the highest honor.....for helping me through this not so pretty pregnancy :)  The leg massages....the many carry out dinners.....the reassuring words like no, my stomach is not going to explode no matter how large I might think that I am :)  Things like that.  I cannot wait to meet this next little member of our family with you standing beside me.  Words cannot express the joy that you and our boys bring to my days.  I am overwhelmed by the blessings God has given me and all of those blessings find you at the center.  Happy Anniversary sweetheart.  I love you with all my heart!

Here we are....well into August.  Not sure where the summer has gone.  Since the last post, our days have been filled with 2 more weeks of swim lessons, 2 extended weekend vacations with family, a wonderful week of Vacation Bible School, a few trips to the beach, and prep for Kindergarten ....which started today....which I am still coming to terms with......and yes, I will be that mom standing at the end of the driveway, waving my arms, when he gets off the bus at 4 o'clock this afternoon.  :)  I know he will quickly recover from any embarrassment I may cause.  It's such a strange feeling.  Usually at this time of the day he and I are doing some sort of activity together while little brother takes a nap.  Now, here I am with some time to blog...and for that I am grateful...but it's just weird.  I need a few days to adjust to the whole idea of how he can possibly manage his day without momma by his side.  But deep down, past the emotion of it ...
