A Mother's Eyes

I installed Cozi on my computer yesterday, and one of the features is a screensaver with collages from my photos. I've had family photos as a screensaver and wallpaper before, and I have this tendency to just sit and stare, especially at my daughters and nieces. I could look at those photos forever and never get tired of them.




I am just taken by their beauty and cuteness and just the wonderfulness of them. Maybe it's because in a picture they are still and not talking. Back to my point . . . to me they are the most enchanting and beautiful girls in the world, and I expect everyone else to agree with me. But I know they don't. I mean, sure, people think most kids, including mine, are cute, but not to the extent that a mother does.

And so every day I realize another aspect of the depth of my love for these incredible creatures. To me, no one compares.

They ARE beautiful! I have three girls about the same ages with a 9 1/2 year old boy on top. It's a good life!
I enjoyed reading through some of your entries and will be praying for wisdom about whether you should pursue another adoption or foster care! I wonder if God has plans for either of those in our future.
It's nice to "meet" you!
Blessings,
Angel

Those are some seriously cute little girls. I was just going to comment to that effect, totally unprecedented, on your first post, and then I saw this post. Too funny.

Thanks for stopping by, guys, and for complimenting my darlings. We all know that's the way to a mom's heart!

Isn't it so true? It seems like no one could possibly understand the depth of love I have for my daughter. But that's how everyone feels about their own...but that said...your girls are amazingly cute! ;)

Hey there! It's very cool that you're enjoying the Cozi Collage feature. I work with Cozi, and wanted to let you know that now you can press "S" when you see a collage you particularly like and e-mail it to friends and family. If there's one you're particularly proud of (as you should be - those are some cute girls you've got!), you could even enter it into our "Top Collage" contest. Check out our blog for details.
