One thing you can't stop is time....

When I look back at the last 17 years and where I am today I feel blessed and lucky to have just about everything I want and need. Our family is complete, we have 3 wonderful children, and when I talk to my relatives in England and give them updates on the boys and their lives here in Canada I almost break down, because I am proud of what I have accomplished. I have a wonderful husband who I would not swap for anyone or anything, we do just about everything together. Savannah just brings so much joy to the family, even her 22 year old brother can't wait to see her at night when I arrive home from daycare. This just cuts me up, when I take her to bed at night and its getting soooo much better, she grabs my neck while lying down and says "Mommy I lus you" and says it over and over again and then says "one more time mommy" she won't let go, I feel so loved by her and we know for sure she feels the same from us. I never thgouth I would say this, but some night I don't want to put her to bed I want to spend all the time with her and I can't wait for weekends she is so much fun to be around. She tells me she is busy now, but she does help around the house cleaning, feeding fish, her favourite is watering the plants. Well Feb 28th at 10:40am it will be 2 years that I received the call from CB. See time never stands still for anyone. So as one son arrives home next week for reading week the other goes off to sunny Cancun with his friends. Savannah will then be confused for sure, one shows up and one leaves. Well we should see what Saturday brings its Gymnastics time again in Mississauga, I know how much she loves to jump and climb. So as far as learning she is doing just fine exactly what a 2.5 year old should be doing, ABC's all the way, all colours 1-12 in counting, her street address and then last but not least I ask her where she is from and she say's China. Savannah is truly a daddy's girl when Dave tells me what she gets away with in the morning when I have left for work, its not good. But he's having fun with it, and I can handle it Savannah knows when I say "No" its meant. When I think we went 1.5 years every single night sitting on her bed for 20mins-1.5 hours and for the last 2 months we have stopped that, no nap and now I can take baths at night, read, watch my favourite Coronation Street and basically get caught up with my husband. Having two sons that are totally independent, good at what they do, value money, and understand life as it is today makes it much more easier. You only get out of life what you put in..... that's my motto to our kids.
