The joy that is mine :)

So there are four things (more then that) but four that truly make me happy. I like to call them Haybug, Bobo, Nuker, and Nader. My four kids hold my heart.
They are the glue that holds me together and also the lose string that could make me fall apart.
They are my most favorite ups and downs.
We went out to dinner tonight, a reward for all the good work they do. And yes we ended up a Chuck E Cheese's. It was so much fun to watch them play together, clamor to get their picture taken with each other, and in the end share their tickets to make sure everyone got something fun from the toys.
I was so please to see Haybug(12) take her little bother Nader(4) and make sure he got what he wanted before she did. She still got what she wanted, but she made sure he had his first. Counting her tickets with his to make sure he would not be unhappy.
That was a great example to me and to him. Maybe she helped him to know that he should put others first. To think of himself after he thinks of others.
I know I remind the older kids all the time that the younger ones are looking to them. Seems to me that they heard me.
That is why they are my JOY.
