Feeling blessed

I know how blessed I am but I don't always feel that way. But with Mother's Day last weekend and just spending some wonderful time with my boys this past weekend, I've really felt blessed, which is so nice. On Mother's Day we found out that Evan is a BIG fan of the pool! He had a fit when we went to leave because he wanted to keep jumping in the pool or going down the water slide. We were celebrating my stepsister's graduation from UCF at the Grand Cypress Hotel. It has an amazing pool with waterfalls and slides. At first he clung to me and I wasn't sure if he was going to loosen up. But once he got a bit more brave, he just loved it. He made his Mommy's heart skip a beat quite a few times as he got rather daring with jumping off the side into my arms. I'm hoping to sign him up for swimming lessons soon. Looks like we'll be trying to find as many opportunities as possible to get him to a pool this summer. Dad and Leslie...here we come! :)

Check out Evan's face in this photo; doesn't it just say it all! I love seeing him this excited. Such pure joy and exhilaration!
