What I've learned from my kids...so far!

These first few years of parenthood have been exciting, educational, and at times, very challenging.
Jason and I have learned many little "life lessons" on our journey so far.

Here are just a few thoughts that come to mind when reflecting on what our kids have taught us...

-Slow down! Take the time to look and listen from a baby's perspective --it's fun!
-The first year of life is the most amazing year.
--The most exciting nature walk can be had just going around the block.
-Dandelions ARE flowers! And are to be worn behind the ear when given as a gift.
-Singing is fun! It should be done several times a day, every day (sometimes very loudly)!
-There are six Power Rangers (I can even tell you all their colors too).
-I'm a Jeopardy master at the categories: "Dinosaurs" and "construction vehicles."
-The more siblings you have, the longer you should wait to walk.
-A three-year-old's rendition of "Old McDonald" (or any song for that matter) can be very entertaining.
-Kissing owies makes them feel better and heal faster!
-Sometimes late night feedings can be precious and fun.
-It is possible to function on less than 2 hours of sleep every night for at least one full week before crashing.
-Caffiene is my new B.F.F.!
-You can have your very own outdoor adventure every day! A new adventure is waiting just outside your front door--all you need is a tremendous imagination.
-Water noodles also double as swords and excellent bubble poppers.
-Hugs and kisses, before parting ways (and before bedtime) are always a must!
-Snuggle time is the best time of the day.
-A tummy makes a terrific wind instrument.
-It is possible to love more than one somebody with all your heart!
-A masterpiece is in the eye of the beholder - and can be created with a single sheet of paper and a few color crayons, every single day.

-We've also learned that we are the "best parents in the whole wide world"...
for our kids!
