These are a few of my favorite things

This poem was inspired by my family:
Brad, Preston, Paxton, & Peighton, thank you for loving me as a wife and mother and for allowing me to share my love, joy, sorrows, good times, and bad, with all of you daily! My life is so rich because of what each of you brings to it!
Thank you, Jesus for giving me the opportunity to be the wife of Brad and mother to Preston, Paxton , and Peighton! Thank you for calling me your child!


These are a few of my favorite things

Snow days with family all cozy and warm.
Baking and making good things that add charm.
Scrapbooking memories that will forever be shared.
These are some things that I love and show care.

Spending time alone with my best friend, my Savior
Journaling, praying, and thanking Him for His favor.
Going to church and sharing my faith with others.
These are things I enjoy and called to do for my Father.

Adopting one of God's children as my own.
Sharing in a special love as our hearts into one are sewn.
Having a daughter to share life and laughter with.
These are some things I thank God for "my precious gift.

Being the mother of a princess and two amazing boys.
Watching them learn and grow through all the hurts and the joys.
The honor I've been given to mother these three.
These are some things I do not take lightly.

A wife to my husband of nearly 19 years.
Someone to share all my joys with and fears.
A love that is so appreciated and divine.
These are the times that build character and define.
