Will they ever remember?

Tonight I have taken some time to update baby books and get a bit more on track since another little one is about to enter my world. As I sat there trying to remember and tape pictures and stories into Mason and Sutton's books the thought came to my mind, Will they ever remember me doing these things for them? I write this blog so it's read by them someday, so they know my thoughts, my struggles, my happiness and our lives. Written on paper for forever. Will they appreciate it though? I sure hope so. Will they ever even look at their baby books and photo albums and realize how much work and effort it took mama to preserve and document their little lives? As I have grown and look back, I don't have a good memory. I don't remember the small stuff. Ryon does. His memory is simply amazing. Maybe that's why I feel the need to document, print and save all that I can. I won't be here someday to retell the stories to them. As a mama, I put a lot of hard work into their lives and I sure hope as the years go on our relationship is one that is honest, open, christian based and truly enjoyed mutually. The biggest pleasure I will have someday is having a wonderful grown up relationship with my boys and their wives.  I don't want to be the cool mom. I want to be the "always there" mom. Good or Bad, however far we all live apart, Ryon and I will always be there physically and emotionally! For now, I'll keep doing all the little things that they don't notice and won't remember. Because maybe someday they will look back in awe at the hours spent creating blog and picture books, and updating baby books and truly documenting our lives for them to cherish and remember.
