What makes parenting better than you ever thought?

Most little girls figured that they would be a mommy when they grew up.

What one thing did you not imagine when you became mom that is fantastic?

I am still amazed at how mad I can get at them sometimes, but how I just want to eat them up when they sleep. Ok, that came out wrong, but sometimes my kids drive me nuts.
I just never imagined how much love there is, and how it can't be destroyed, no matter what.

The unconditional love.

A perfect example happened the other night ... I was laying on the couch watching some movie where they were dancingt and Cody came up to me, put his hand out, and said "Would you please dance with me mommy?" My heart melted, and that's one of those moments where I KNOW I'm doing something right!

Every time one of my kids comes up and kisses me and tells me they love me, or that I'm the best mommy in the world, I melt, no matter how bad my day has been!

When the girls play together. When Lyssa makes Kate laugh (and most of the time she's the ONLY one who can make Kate laugh)

When Lys knows Im not feeling good and will do little things to try and make me feel better.

The days when we go for a walk and she want to hold my hand and skip down the block.
