My Superheroes!!!

July 28th....a very special day for me!! Twice on this day I have been blessed with an adorable little boy!!! In 1998 the Lord sent to our family a chubby, happy, exhuberant little boy named Michael who brought laughter and joy wherever he went. His big grin that lit up his whole face was a delight to everyone that encountered him and today as he turns 12 and prepares to receive the priesthood he carries that same face splitting, eye squinting grin and has the most tender and pure spirit. He brings love and laughter into our home everyday and I could not be more proud to be his mom! He is pure delight and brings me great joy every single day! He is a super hero to me because he teaches me about how to find joy in all things! Happy Birthday Mikey...I love you!
In 2001 the Lord again blessed me on this day with my precious baby, Noah! He came here quickly and his pure and gentle spirit touched everyone he came in contact with. His big brown eyes could melt your heart in a second and as he would climb up in my lap and snuggle with his hand on my cheek, all my worries would fade away. His sweetness could calm my worries as he placed his hand in mine and his determination to have everything done correctly taught me much about order in a chaotic world. He was taken from me too soon and I miss his big smile! He was a superhero to me because he taught me how to prioritize my time and put the most important things first. Today he looks at me from the other side of the veil and I feel him ever near. Happy Birthday Noah....I miss you and I love you!
So today I celebrate the lives of these two wonderful little boys who brought to our home many blessings that we feel everyday. We are grateful for these, our super heroes in everyway...they bless our lives with their examples and we are happy to be doubly blessed on this the 28th day of July! We are very thankful! Happy Birthday my precious, precious boys!!!
