Life with boys

I have to say I love being a boy mom! My boys mean the absolute world to me. They bring me so much joy,and happiness! Logan and Landon have a really great relationship. I love to hear them playing together, and laughing with eachother. Yes,they do pick on eachother,but thats what brothers do,right?!  It would be too boring if they didnt haha!

 Logan is such a big brother, he loves to teach Landon different imaginary games,landon is mostly agreeable,but sometimes he wants alone time,which is understandable.

Family is so important to me. My husband is always there to give me support without judgement.  If someone truelly cares about you they wont judge you. So surround your self with joyeous and happy people,and u,yourself will be happy. Im a forgiving person,life is too short to be anything but HAPPY!

That moment when

 That moment when u tell your 2yr old that hes supposed to poop in the potty,and he states no I poop in my diaper. Or u tell him hes a big boy and he should wear underwear,and he tells u no i wear diapers .

That moment when u get a call from the school nurse telling u your 5yr ol tripped at recess and cut his chin open,and he has to go to the doctor and get his chin glued shut, instead of getting stitches.

The moment when your son tells his teacher he wont be in school tomorrow bc hes gunna be playing tball all day! Hah that one made me laugh!

The moment when u really wanna say something to someone u see almost everyday but dont know quite what to say,or how to go about a conversation with them.

That moment when you  are so thankful for your children and how much they've learned over the last year.

That moment when you are so thankful to have such a loving husband,that would do anything to see u smile,and that loves u for who u are,not who they want u to be.

That moment when u are so thankful your child survived cancer,and you are still able to see them grow up,and raise them.

That moment when you are so thankful for the family you have,and all the memories.

Lately

I have been enjoying life with my beautiful family. Absolutely love it here,its everything i have dreamed of! Kids are loving it too! Landons 3rd birthday and Logans 6th is coming up, they both are so excited! Logan wants a white cake,with vanilla frosting,with the writing on his cake to be yellow. Landon wants a chocolate cake.

The school year is about over,it has literally flown by,i cannot believe it. Logan is growing up so fast.
I cherish every moment I get with him,and Landon! Being a mom is one of the greatest jobs in the world.

Thankful

I am very grateful. We've had a son battle cancer, and survive. We've helped him get to where he is today which he remembers the trauma,but doesnt understand what was wrong with him or why he went through what he did. But I held it together when i really wasnt together,and hopefully some day he will understand. I have my best friend, my husband, who has been there for me,been there to help me through,been my shoulder to cry on,i am so very lucky to have him in my life. Someone who cares about our family and I,someone who works hard for our family,and who makes me happy. Thats the most important right there, being happy !  When you enjoy the little things,it is so easy to be happy in life. The little things is what its about !  We have lived in our new house for a little over 8 months and we love it. We have such a great school district,and community,my cup runneth over. Found out Logan will have to have one more brain scan in 6 months,then he will have only one brain scan yearly,for that i am so overwhelmed with joy. Logans coming up on his 4 yrs mark since he got diagnosed with his cancer and they said if he made it 5 yrs without it coming back,then he will be considered that of a child that has never had it in the first place. I am just beyond happy we have made it this far.  Im so thankful and take pride that i was able to be there every step of the way,I love you son!

Its already been 2 yrs

It has already been two years since our son Logan finished his last Chemotherapy treatment at

Childrens Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. I am beyond blessed to say he is still doing well today.

Logan completed a year and a half of Chemotherapy and has made it two years without the Brain

 cancer coming back. The statistics are if he makes it five years without the cancer coming back then

 hes considered like he never had it. Logan has come so very far these last two years, I am just so

 very proud of him. He is doing very good in Kindergarten, and I love the school he goes too.

Congratulations buddy, I am so happy you are my son, and my cancer survivor.

Here's some pictures taken over the years of Logan

My Boys are My Everything

Logan started Kindergarten in Riley about a week and a half ago. He is really liking school. I am so impressed with the Riley school district, I am so glad we moved here, I couldn't be happier. The teachers here are just remarkable, and you can see they really care about all the kids they teach.

Logan has been cancer free for 2 years now, so he only has to go and get a brain scan once every 6 months. I  am so proud of how far Logan has come since that day of his brain surgery. He has matured and learned so much. I am one of his biggest teachers, I work with him daily to teach him new skills. I have been very lucky to be able to stay at home with him for his first 5 years, he will be going all day in Kindergarten this year. I will miss him greatly, but I know it is time to let him go to school to learn new things, and meet new people. I know he will do great.

Landon is staying home with me this year, he is not quite 2 1/2 yet. I will be working with him when Logan is in school to try and get him ready for preschool next year. There is so much they need to know nowadays its insane, a lot more then when I was young. Landon is talking a lot, and doing a lot of independent things, he doesn't like to hold my hand when we walk, he likes to guide himself,  yeah I know I'm pretty sad, he's growing up, he is a toddler now.

Logan and Landon have a wonderful bond, I am so happy that they look up to each other so much, they play together so well.  I love to see them play and interact together, it makes me so happy inside. The boys love to color, and paint, and read books. Being a mom is really one of the best jobs ever. I am forever thankful for my beautiful children.

 

 

My husband is so loving, and caring. We have been together for 6 years. Our relationship gets stronger and better everyday. I am so thankful for his humbleness. He would do anything for our family and myself. He really just wants me to be happy, and I am.
