Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation;

on thee do I wait all the day.

--Psalm 25:5

One Toddler Left

I can't believe I only have one toddler left. At one time I had 3 toddlers a baby and two kids  hee hee. Well anyway, Lance is 3.5 yrs and my last toddler. It's kind of sad but in a way I'm looking forward to having no diapers, bottles, sippy cups and being able to understand what they are saying. I have had all my kids one year after another that when Lance hit a year old, it felt weird not having a baby.

 

 

Sometimes I just stare at Lance because I'm not going to have another 3 yr old ever. Before every year I would have at least one 1yr, 2yr, 3yr etc. but now it's all ending.

 

As much as being done with having babies is sad and it has taken me 3yrs to finally accept this. I think I'm finally seeing that 6 is our number. I love having 6 children and I honestly do not think I can handle more. I would love to have more but I don't think it would be a good idea for me. It seems at times I can barely handle what's on my plate right now. I'm embarresed to write that but it's true. Having six kiddos is hard work. My Sweets and I are responsible for these wonderful children and to keep up with them isn't always easy. Providing the roof over their heads and food to eat is the easy part but I'm talking about their emotions, training, spirtual well being, keeping their heart etc. and we don't even have teens yet. Yikes!

 

Now if God decided to give us another child, I would be on cloud nine. Especially since I can't have anymore.

 

Well, I need to get off the computer, I have tons of laundry to get done  and my little blessings are going to be up from their naps an minute.

Blessings,

Linda<><

I'm Linda, a child of God, wife to my best friend Lupe and mom to Joshua 98, Annette 99, Caleb 00, Brent 01, Ethan 03 & Lance 04. We have been homeschooling since 2002. We homeschool because we believe that this is what God wants us to do right now. I love being with my children, most of the time=) I have to admit that there are days when I ask God "Why am I doing this?" and he gently reminds me that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me and deep down inside my heart I know why I am homeschooling ;)
