"I got sunshine... on a cloudy day. When it's cold outside... I've got the month of May!" (are you singing "My Girl" in your head?)
Being a mommy is a wonderful thing. It's not always glamorous, or easy, but at the end of the day (or on a rainy, gloomy afternoon), my girls bring a smile to my face.
Hope you have something in your life that makes you smile. :-)

Gotta start somewhere
I commented to a friend just the other day... "Nobody would read my blog even if I had one." I guess we shall see...
Everyday is a gloriously organic thing- a blessing from God. We never know as we take our leave from friends and loved ones if it will be our last time. Yesterday marked one month since my grandfather, lovingly called "Papa" by most, was called home. My family looks back with fond memories and a lot of laughter, but also tears of sadness as we wish he were here... Yesterday also marked 9 months since we welcomed our Chloe into the family, transforming the Williamses in a moment into a family of 4. Quite a contrast- loss and gain, death and birth, ending and beginning. I hope that my children will grow to know their Papa through the things he taught me; most of all, that they grow to love God. Papa taught me a lot of things, but that is one of the biggies- Love God Always, NO MATTER WHAT. If I teach my babies nothing else but a sincere love and trust for Him, I will be satisified because in that relationship lies all else.
