Why I'm A Mom

Reasons I am a mom:

1. I get to reenact the scene from Mulan 2 where Shane falls down a cliff with Elysha at least twice a day.  "Mom!  No!!!"
2. I get to watch Ashley strut around like a 'big person' after she has been potty trained.  She even flips her hair occasionally.
3. I rock John several times a day while he looks up at me with his big blue eyes.  
4. When I come back after leaving them with someone, both my girls will run and give me a tight hug.
5. I know my kids want to do everything I do.  I know I can influence how happy they are, how successful they may become, and how strong of a testimony they might develop.  They are my responsibility and they are everything that makes me happy.

Now I should go see why they are being so quiet in the next room over.  Wish me luck.
