It's the little things in life that are the most important!!! Do you ever get up and want to just get a hot cup of coffee or tea and a good book and curl up and just read and drink your hot drink and enjoy your day by doing nothing else?  I sometimes think, "Oh, it would be so nice to just have a lazy day today."  Then reality sets in and my kiddos wake up and before you know it, it is time to start the day.  Laundry, dishes, feeding kids, cleaning up and all the millions of little things that we moms do every day.   You know, I love my family more than anything and sometimes it would be nice to just have that lazy day or just do nothing or anything other than all the adulting things we have to do, but I wouldn't trade my life for anything.  I love the time I get to spend with my kiddos, even if it is a million things I have to do.  So I get my cup of coffee and usually make my older kiddo a hot cup of cocoa and we start our day just enjoying our hot drinks together.

It has been such an adventure to be a boy mama.  How many boy moms are out there that feel that way?  He is so full of energy and always on the go.  We are homeschooling now and he is working hard at Kindergarten.  It has been quite the adventure of learning different learning styles that work best for him. We are currently working on learning to read and that has been so much fun to see him learning.  Some days it feels like we are just working against each
