Made with Love -P52 Week 2

*Made with Love*

{Kolton Lane & Brynlee Marie}

When someone mentions Love my first thought turns to these two!
I am so blessed to be called their Mom.
I love that they love each other so much, I know there will be a day that won't be as close as they are now, but no doubt they will always Love each other as much as they do now!

Happy 4th Birthday Kolton Lane

Four Years Ago (yesterday, yes I know I am late with post but we were busy.)God chose me to be the mother of a beautiful handsome Baby boy! He changed my life forever, in just a matter of hours. I was 24 years old and newly single. I really had no idea what I wanted to do with my life, I was just having fun. On January 20, 2009 I got a call from a close friend's mother. That call forever changed my world and how I saw things.

Kolton's biological "mother" had tested positive for Meth during delivery, as well as Kolton. CPS immediately removed him from her care and he was sent home from the hospital a healthy thriving little boy. His Grandmother was named his primary caregiver for the time being, along with his 3 year old big brother, Cam. His Granny, as we call her, quickly realized she was unable to care for a newborn & a 3 year old. That's where I came in. After a quick phone call Granny was on her way to my house to discuss some things. I had no idea things were about to change forever.

After a lot of discussion with Granny, talks with My mom & sisters, and a lot of praying I decided I would become Kolton's primary caregiver. In a matter of minutes, I can became a mother to a 3 week old little boy. In a few short hours and a lot of help from Family & Friends. My little man had a complete nursery and closet full of clothes.

I truly believe God Chose Me to be his Mother and I am forever grateful for the confidence he had in me. I am more blessed than I could have ever imagined.

To My Amazing, Handsome, Often Stubborn Son,
As we get ready to Celebrate your 4th Birthday with Friends and Family on Saturday, I look back on the last 4 years and how you have made my life complete. I amazed Daily as you grow and continue to learn. I love how curious about life you are. I love that you are a Great Big Brother and that you are always Protecting & loving your sister, when you aren't driving her crazy. I love that you remember to say "Please and Thank you" most of the time. I love your imagination and that you love Trucks. You stole my heart from the moment I held you in my arms. I look forward to all the milestones you have ahead of you. I'll always be right there to hold your hand when are scared, kiss your boo-boo's when you get hurt and give you a little shove when you are nervous. Most of all I will love you with everything I have for as long as I live! Happy 4th Birthday Kolton Lane!

That's the good stuff

Well, since my last couple post have been about some awesome giveaways, I thought I'd give ya little update on what's going on around our parts.

My regular baby sitter is finally back from VA. I know it was bittersweet for her to come back. She lost her dad at the beginning of June, so thats why she was in VA. They extened their stay so that they could spend time with family. But I am so glad to have her back. She is really great with both of the kids and Mr. K just loves her and her boys to death. Ms. B will soon too!

But while she was gone both kids got to spend some time with their Aunt Kay & Nanny. I am so thankful to have them in my kids' lives! They are 2 of the sweetest people ever and they love my lil ones! Plus, they care for Kay's nephew Jeriamah, who is only 6 months older than Kolton, so you know they have fun! While the boys are playing Ms. B gets to suck up all the nanny love!

Little Mr. K is growing up so much and so smart. He amazes me everyday! He is not talking to much but boy does he love to learn! He is so observant and loves to mimic you! He tries to unlock the doors with his keys and becoming such a great help. He will bring you a pull-up and throw away things around the house! He has picked up a little habit that I have no idea where he gets it from. But if you say something to him and he's not in the mood to talk to you or doesn't like what you say he will roll his eyes at you! It's so funny now but in a couple of years, it won't be so funny!

Ms. B is growing and thriving as well! She is now rolling over both ways and laughing. She loves to watch Mickey Mouse & Dora. She will just laugh & talk to the tv its so cute! She is also starting to recongize more faces than just mine & is always chatting when Mr. K is near her. He loves to give her kisses and try to see in her chair with her! She goes next month for her 4 month check up and hopefully we will start some baby food. Maybe she will eat it, Mr. K probably had 10 jars and thats it. You couldn't get him to eat the stuff! But who could blame him?

As far as me, I am doing well. Adjusting to living in my own house and all the that comes with it! I still love my job, although it can get totally stressful some days for the most part it's good! I got a raise last month right after I got my house so that's been a huge help! I am also going back to school in August. My boss is going to keep paying me for 40 hours but I will go to school MW at 345. So that part is awesome! I am an accounting major. My boss said my earning income potential is great if I get my bachelors so thats what I am going to do. Plus he said he pay me well after school so no one steals me! LOL! Well that's about it for now! Guess I better get back to earning my moneyy!!

Till Next time,

Peace, Love & Chicken Grease!
