New Mommy, Again and Father's Day Motivation...

You never forget the first time you hold your baby, every single one of them. Time stands still as you take the deepest breath in as if you can somehow stop the Earth's rotation and keep this moment as perfect as it is. I myself a a new mommy, again. We have our sweet Cupcake, who will be four in September, Little Bit or Sunshine, who just turned two, and two days before that big birthday, we had our first son. So far he holds the nicknames of Prince Charming, Little Man, and my Snuggly Cuddle Pup.

With Father's Day around the corner, I wanted to warm up with some motivation. Holidays seem to sneak up on me. I think someone keeps moving around the holidays and my memo keeps getting lost! Since May 15, I've had very little sleep.Who are we kidding, I've had very little sleep for over four years :)!

On that note, my amazing, Mr. Wonderful has had very little sleep as well. He helps me every chance that he can. He prays for me, listens to me, loves our babies, loves my family and thinks of them, helps take care of our daughters and son, helps with household chores, gets up early and goes to work so that he can come home at a decent time, he comes home and jumps right in with both feet, and much, much more. I am truly blessed beyond measure.

Are you tired and holidays sneak up on you? Think about the motivation for what makes the father in your world great. Maybe it's your husband, your own dad or father-in-law, grandfather, is your brother a great dad or maybe a man who has been like a father to you. Possibly it's even a father that is not here with us anymore, like my Papa Ray. I remember him with love every day, but on Father's Day, I wish I could hug him so much! We should say thank you and show love all year long, but I'm still glad there is a day "all about dad".
