I love love love being home with my boys. Little art projects -- sliced apples and car tracks with finger paint. Making snow castles. Time to wrestle and laugh. Teaching my son to read. Discipline that leads to cuddles and kisses. Watching my boys really enjoy eachother.
Mathias loves his brothers. He watches them intently. And the boys love to make him smile and he's just starting to laugh. Malachi's specialty is giving Mathias zerbets on his bare tummy. And Micah hands him toys and talks to him saying, "It's me, Micah!"
I wish things would never change. I love this stage. I don't know if this is contentment or if I just fear losing these simple things when the boys grow up.
Either way, I'm trying to be as thankful as I can for every day -- take as many pictures and videos as I can and journal (blog) as often as I can too.
Can you bottle up a rainbow to enjoy later? I'm giving it my best effort.

You don't have to bottle that rainbow it keeps growing and growing as they get bigger. As they learn to read or comprehend Gods promises, they grow around you. They are so enjoyable at every age, granted they are not always cute cubby babies but a hardy Amen to that too..hehe!!! It's so amazing to see as they grow what incredible things God has created in them. They have a purpose in this life and you must unfold all those gifts and talents inside of them as they grow into men. I think we have a wonderful calling as mommies of little men!!!!!
