For Mother's Day 2008, I wanted a chair large enough to hold both my big girl and the baby I was expecting. So, three year old Brenna and her daddy picked me out a big, soft recliner. When Cailyn arrived, my girls and I all fit in it together just fine. Lots of things have changed in our lives since then! My girls are now eight and five. We don't fit nearly as comfortably as we used to, but none of us mind a bit. I don't think a day goes by that we don't all find our selves cuddled/squashed in my chair together at least once.
This evening, a girl sitting on both sides of me, Brenna found an eyelash on my cheek and told me to make a wish. I couldn't think of a single thing to wish for. I had just gotten home from my first day at my new job... That's right, I am finally employed again!!! And here I sat with my girls loving on me. No, we don't have it all. But we have all we need and we have a house and a big brown chair full of love! (Even if it is a messy house.)
