Hi PIT, I am so excited to know you have a blog. I was missing all these great pictures of the Summerlin family! John Davis is beautiful! What a smile! Isn't he a joy? Little boys can be so much fun...most of the time...:)
I know you are all getting ready for a big Easter and a fun spring! Tina and I are hoping to get over to Moultrie soon.
How's school? If you are like me, it is time to start counting down the days til summer!
I have enjoyed seeing your Mom and Mimi...just sorry the circumstances were not the best.
Hope to visit with you all soon. Give your boys a hug for me and love to Jolie and family.

Blessings,
Tonja

CUTE kid!!! Thanks for updating...I like keeping up...Cindy

Before I was a Mom.....

Before I was a Mom.....
I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations.

Before I was a Mom...
I had never been puked on...
Pooped on...
Chewed on...
Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.
I slept all night.

Before I was a Mom...
I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests.
Or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.

Before I was a Mom...
I ne ver held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put him/her down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mom.

Before I was a Mom...
I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy.

Before I was a Mom...
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a Mom.
