Out with the old in with the new/ or Eli's hand-me-downs:)

So today I cleaned out the boys clothes. It was very sad so put away all of Micah's clothes that he is now to big for and dig out Eli's old clothes in his new size which is anywhere between 12 to 18 to 24 months. I can't believe how big he is getting! He is almost 1 year old and I wish I could make him small again already! With that sadness now behind me, I will only need to buy him a few things to finish up his winter wardrobe! So there is some light in the sadness! As for Eli I can not say the same, my pour baby is now so big that only 1 or 2 pairs of pants fit him and maybe a few long sleeve shirts that will be to short for him by the time December comes around. So his fall/winter wardrobe is gonna cost me a pretty penny because we are starting with practically nothing! With that said if any of my friends have any boys clothes sizes 5-6 please send them my way! I'm just glad that it finally decided to feel like summer outside so I have time to collect a little at a time before it gets really cold! But I'm just blessed that they are growing and are very healthy little boys! As a mom I can't ask for anything better! I'm so thankful to my Lord for keeping them that way!


My thoughts on this thing we call parenting is, "ITS NOT EASY" but "ITS SO WORTH IT!" It amazes me how fast it goes by. I know there are days when I'm like man things will get easier when they get older and can help out more. But then I think I don't want them to get older and not really need mommy anymore. I'm just going to try and enjoy every day of this crazy ride and soak up every bit of this sweet time with my boys that I can, because one day they will not be little anymore. I'm just thankful that the Lord blessed me and picked me to be their mommy! The greatest part of my day today was hearing Eli sing a song that they sang in children's church, over and over and over again:

I will make you fishers of men,

Fishers of men, fishers of men,

I will make you fishers of men,

if you follow me.

If you follow me,

If you follow me,

I will make you fishers of men if you follow me

Sweetest words a mom can here her children speak are that of our sweet Jesus! I'm am truly one blessed mommy!
