What in the world?! How is my little baby already 2 years old? Not only do I feel like I was just writing a post about Samuel turning a year old, but I honestly feel like it was only a few months ago that I was in the hospital giving birth to him (Well, I was in the hospital just a few months ago giving birth to Benjamin, but it really feels like time has flown!)
What a GIFT to us our little guy is! God did not have to give us a little boy that is so full of life, energy, joy, hugs, and kisses. He did not have to give us a little boy that would challenge us in the ways he does that bring us closer to Him. He is so gracious and kind to give us what we do not deserve and to bless us beyond our imaginations!
Joshua and I think our guy is so cool. He brightens our days and makes us laugh. Like I said, he challenges us and in those challenges we draw near to each other and near to our God. Each day I'm reminded of the lovingkindness that God shows us and how I am to reflect that in my parenting of both Samuel and Benjamin. I'm so grateful for a Heavenly Father who loves me perfectly, disciplines me perfectly, and leads me perfectly in my sanctification. This is the type of momma I want to be to our sons and I pray that in these past two years, I have grown to be more like Him.
Two years ago, a little person changed my life forever and I am forever grateful for the smiles, the tears, the laughter, the challenges, the joys, the precious little moments, and all that comes in between.
Samuel guy, WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH and are thankful to God for giving you to us two years ago!
