Motherhood

The Morris family is officially moved up here. We are complete. These children fill spaces in my heart. The other night Tyson and I put Ava and Paisley to bed. We read a story, then the scriptures, then took turns singing songs to them in the dark as we tickled their backs. Yesterday I jumped on the trampoline with Paisley and Boston; we three held hands and jumped, then Pais jumped by herself and I held Boston's hands and bounced with him. I pushed Paisley on the swing and held Boston on my hip. Ava got a splinter, I carried her inside and got it out with a pair of tweezers. I feel at home taking care of children. They fit well in my arms and heart and they make me happy in a different way then other things. Motherhood. What an adventure it will be. The hardest, best job in the world.
