Had a soon-to-be-father asking us questions...advice and such. He asked me if I would do it all over again. Would I? Would I take the 20 extra pounds, the stress, and the gray hairs and wrinkles? YES I WOULD!!! I love my kids....yeah sometimes I feel like screaming and running away but those moments don't last. My little Max has the sweetest smile and he bestows it upon his momma the most. Grey just keeps me smiling and laughing all day long...what a goof! Ike...well, Ike is so sweet and gentle. He loves his brothers and he is so anxious to please. Corbin is my bossy little take charge guy but he is good to me and always mindful of what I need. He is always telling me that he loves me and he has taught his brothers to do the same....I am continually hearing, "Mom, I love you" ringing through the house. And Mike....he is the most trouble but I don't know what I would do without him. Even when he is a big pain, he is my entire heart and soul. Love him....love them all to pieces. So...best advice? Love them! Don't take them for granted and sleep all you can. :) I don't regret a single minute of it...the pounds will go eventually and I can do yoga for the stress and dye my hair pink if I want to and wrinkles aren't so bad really but I will never, EVER find anything as miraculous as my guys!

I won't be on here again before then so...HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

My oldest sister just told me about 4 kids that have been abandoned by their mom. 3 girls and a little boy. It just kills me. She has had 8 kids...the first 4 have already been adopted...now she is giving up the younger ones. They are 6, 4, 2, and 1. She says that she just can't bond with her kids. It breaks my heart and makes me cry.
