To My Babies:

As I sit here tonight, I just feel it very important to make sure the both of you know how truly blessed I feel to have you as mine.

Nolan, I only dreamed and imagined how rewarding and amazing being a Mommy could be until I actually held you in my arms on April 4, 2007. Nothing on this earth can prepare a person for love of that magnitude...it cannot even put into words; it can only be felt deep inside. Each day since, that love has only grown beyond measure. You amaze me every single day with your personality, humor, and affection. You also push me to my limits and challenge me (in a good way). You've taught me the true meaning of Mommyhood.

Parker, you've made me realize the importance of a smile. A smile can go a very long way and can really turn a mood around and change the whole environment. Your smile is so electric and it almost feels as though it literally touches my heart. You wear it proudly and often. I wish everyone found as much joy in life as you do. It's my sincere hope that you always have this attribute. You've taught me what it's like to feel that deep, indescribable love all over again and just how much extra room I had in my heart that I never realized I did.

"YOU ARE THE
PEANUT TO MY BUTTER
TWINKLE IN MY EYESHAKE TO MY BAKE
BLUE IN MY SKY
SPRINKLES ON MY SUNDAE
FLIP TO MY FLOPBUMBLE TO MY BEE
JEWEL ON MY CROWN
MILK TO MY SHAKE
SPRING IN MY STEPBEAT OF MY HEART
LOVES OF MY LIFE."

Love,
Your Proud Mommy
