What do you get...

What do you get when you cross 2 good readers with a library's summer reading program?
The chance to celebrate a summer of reading at an end of the summer party at the library!!
What do you get when you try and document Kaitlyn's first day at church?
Crying,
More Crying,
and finally a partial smile!
What do you get when you cross a nurturing 5-year-old with a matching night gown for her doll?
A bedtime where you'd always better be able to locate Emily's nightgown and her doll!
What do you get when you try to take a walk with a fussy baby and 3 other kids, including one who doesn't sit still in the stroller?
A 3-year-old who falls out of the stroller while the mom is distracted and face plants on the sidewalk
And ends up with a very fat lip!
What do you get when you cross a recently pregnant mom with Addy?
This!! (Addy putting a ball under her shirt pretending to be pregnant, all while making her Addy picture face!)
What do you get when you finally get a fussy baby to sleep?
The realization that a minor miracle has occurred,
And the chance to admire a little piece of Heaven!
Oh the joys of motherhood!
