Things I love about my boys

Today was a good Sunday. It wasn't perfect--there were definitely moments of screaming (on the children's side, not mine), as well as frustration, but overall everything was just good. In honor of that, I'd like to share some of the things I love about my boys!

I love how Tommy always puts his tub toys away before pulling the plug and getting out all by himself.

I love how Jack loves food--not in an unhealthy way, but in a truly "enjoying food" kind of way.

I love how Tommy is honestly concerned about the feelings of others. For example, when Jack was being difficult in Sacrament meeting, Tommy came up to me and asked, "Mommy, can I help Jack?" And he frequently asks me if I'm okay. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside!

I love how Jack enjoys putting things away--toys, shoes, and diapers (in the trash). He seems to have a knack for organization!

I love how much Tommy loves sleep. It's been a blessing many, many times.

I love how much Jack loves books. It's adorable to watch him sit in a pile of books and "read."

I love it when Tommy sings. He puts his whole heart and soul into it, and you can tell that he loves it.

I love it when Jack smiles. He lights up a room, and feels things (as Papa says) "from the top of his head to the tip of his toes."

I love it when Tommy sees a picture of President Uchtdorf , calls him "Papa" and then laughs--because he knows better.

I love how cuddly Jack is. His hugs are the best!

I love it when Tommy asks me to "make the cello sing, mommy."

I love it when my boys hug and say they're sorry. They seem like they mean it.

I love how they both can identify a picture of the Savior, even though he looks different in each picture.

I love baking with my boys, and watching them learn how to measure, mix, and not make a complete mess (sometimes).

I love how unique they both are.

In just a little over a month I won't just have "my boys," but I'm grateful for the time we've spent together so far! I hope they like their sister as much as they like each other...
