Well today Triton turned 4...He is at daycare today because we had to work but when I get off he should have a small cake at home for him that says "Happy Birthday Triton" on it. We just did a small 6 inch cake because his birthday party is next Saturday the 25th and we have ordered his cake for that. Monday we are taking 15 cupcakes to daycare for his class to have a party. We didn't do it today because on Friday they go to the library so I didn't want to disrupt their day. Next Saturday the 25th we have his birthday party scheduled for down at the New Mannford Ramp. We have reserved the shelter all day and then we have rented 2 of the jupiter jumps.
The dinosaur one has a slide on the back. Can't wait. Momma and Preslee are going to slide! For his birthday party I have ordered a round cake that has a spider web design and then Spiderman figurines on it. He is into the Spiderman thing right now! I believe it will be so cute!
This past weekend we did Preslee's 6 month pictures. I loved them...We got them back last night and I uploaded all of them to FB but I will put a few on here. She is getting so big and so quick.
My kiddos are getting so big. Anastacia is 5 now and she is getting ready to go into Kindergarden this year. I can't believe it. Triton will start school also and go into the 4 year old program in Mannford. I will have 2 kids in school...WOW!!!!!
I received this poem in an email today and I absolutely LOVE it...
I thought of you and closed my eyes
And prayed to God today.
I asked what makes a Mother
...And I know I heard him say...
A mother has a baby
This we know is true.
But, God, can you be a mother
when your baby is not with you?
Yes, you can He replied,
With confidence in His voice.
I give many women babies
When they leave is not their choice.
Some I send for a lifetime,
And others just for a day.
And some I send to feel your womb,
But there's no need to stay.
I just don't understand this God,
I want my baby here.
He took a breath and cleared His throat
And then I saw a tear.
I wish I could show you
What your child is doing today.
If you could see your child smile
With other children and say:
"We go to earth to learn our lessons
Of love and life and fear.
My mommy loved me oh so much
I got to come straight here.
I feel so lucky to have a mom
Who has so much love for me.
I learned my lessons very quickly,
My mommy set me free.
I miss my mommy Oh so much,
But I visit every day.
When she goes to sleep
On her pillow is where I lay.
I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek
And I whisper in her ear.
Mommy don't be sad today,
I'm your baby and I'm here."
So, you see my dear sweet one,
Your children are not blue.
Your babies are here in MY home,
They'll be at Heaven's gate waiting for you.
So now you see what makes a mother,
It's the feeling in your heart.
It's the love you had so much of,
Right from the very start.
Though some on earth may not realize you are a mother,
Until their time is done.
They'll be up here with Me one day,
And they'll know you were the best one!
