Today I was practicing the piano and I was playing out of book I have which has arrangements of hymns and primary songs. I was playing a beautiful arrangement of Mary's lullaby the only words I remember from that hymn are "but tonight you are mine". I was thinking about Mary and how she knew what her Son would do for the world and how she knew she had such a short time in his life to be his mom and have him all to herself. That made me think about my beautiful kids. I love Kira and Josh. They are special very loving kids. I thought how precious this time is where I am with them all day where they really have no outside influences in their lives. I know they will go on to accomplish great things in their life but it's nice to think "tonight 'they' are mine"

Diana-
What a beautiful post & tribute to your babies. I think they are darling & can't believe how grown up they are getting. Josh's talking sounds so cute & I would just love to have a playdate with Kira!
I am grateful you get to be home with your kids and that they get to take from your example of what loving mom is like. You are a great example to me and someday when I have kids, I hope to emulate many of your characteristics. Love you!

Your kids sure are cute Diana--you're lucky!
I love the thought of my kids being mine tonight- so slow down and enjoy them this moment. Cute pictures :)
This is a sweet post. You're wise to be aware of the special nature of this time you have with them now when there aren't many outside influences. I remember thinking that time would never end, but sure enough it has and now my kids say and do things and I think "What in the world? Who taught them that?" and it's a little frightening.
