Proud Day

Every now and then, actually, all the bloody time, my kids do things that amaze me.  This morning, Sprat has been writing not only his name, but that of his best friend as well.  The amazing thing about this is that Sprat is only 3 and a half.  I am beyond proud at this moment.  This has been a truly goose bump inducing moment in my life.  I always knew that the time would go so quickly, but it seems like only yesterday we were watching Sprat enter this world, and now here he is writing his name and our third bub is about to enter the world .. The funniest thing about this all is that I feel like a younger person today than I did 3 years ago.  My outlook on not only my life, but the lives of my kids has changed profoundly.  I know I am a better mother today than I have ever been.  And I know that I have never felt prouder than I do right now.
