Long day

Today has been one of the longest and almost worst days ever. Porter has just been super fussy all day long. I think it's because of his shots he got last week. I don't really know though. All he has wanted today is mommy to hold him. He just finally went to sleep and it's midnight!! I have been so frustrated all day long.

I was just rocking him to sleep and I looked down at him and started to cry. Not because of the frustration I have felt but because he is so perfect. I looked at his little fingers, his soft and chubby cheeks, his perfect ears, and his little binki slowly falling out of his mouth. He is my baby. My responsiblity. Heavenly father trusted that I could handle this little precious guy. I got to thinking it is so rewarding that he trusts me enough to be completly relaxed and love me so much that he wants to sleep in my arms. Just that little thought changed my whole attitude about the entire day. Although Porter can't tell me he loves me with words, he does every day by wanting to snuggle his mommy.

Porter's Blessing

We just had Porter's blessing this last Sunday. The blessing was supposed to be 2 weeks ago but church was cancelled because of the snow!! Crazy. So it was rescheduled for this last week. It was silly because hs outfit didn't even fit anymore. He had grown so much in just the short two weeks. We made him wear it anyway. It wasn't too bad, but you could sure tell that he was too big.

It was so nice to have family with us that day. I am so glad that I married such a worthy guy to be able to bless his family any time he needs. It was short and sweet. Just the way I like it. :)
