I never could have imagined the experiences, challenges and rewards that come along with the title and responsibility of being "Mom". Everyday my little ones present different needs to be met, new attitudes to understand, stages to conquer, and find new ways to unravel my patience. Despite the challenges, the rewards that come from a genuine I love you mom, a moment of 3 children happily playing together, and even a simple accomplishment bring feelings and emotions that words can't describe. I am ever so grateful for my Precious Little Ones; for their individuality, talents, and the completeness each one contributes to the Cox Clan.

Precious LIttle Ones

I never could have imagined the experiences, challenges and rewards that come along with the title and responsibility of being "Mom". Every day my little ones present different needs to be met, new attitudes to understand, stages to conquer, and find new waves to unravel my patience. Despite the challenges, the rewards that come from a genuine "I love you"; moments of three children happily playing together; and even a simple accomplishment bring feelings and emotions that words can't describe. I am ever so grateful for My Precious Little Ones; for their individuality, talents, and the completeness each one contributes to The Cox Clan.

Madelyn


*Being the oldest and only girl, Madelyn has become very responsible, a big helper, and truly watches out and cares for her brothers.

*Loves to sing and dance with Hannah Montana, especially with her new karaoke machine

*Looks forward to an outing alone with Mom, never forgetting her purse stuffed with the essentials: cell phone, lip gloss, wallet full of change, water bottle, and make-up

*Has discovered she likes to shop, and was estatic with her first purchase...a $5 Hannah Montana hoodie shirt from Dillards. Oh Yeah!!

*Enjoys every minute of school, her favorite class is P.E. but she also excels in spelling, including words like because, Wednesday, and should...even as a kindergartener!



Mason


*Was loved by his preschool teachers last year, one in particular Ms. Lenore who every time I saw her stated, "There is something so special about him..we just love his twinkling blue eyes and big smile."


*Easily entertains himself, demands very little attention, and is easily pleased


*Such an observant little boy...recently told me, "Mom you have a road on your hair!" (after questioning his meaning, realized he saw the part in my hair); also when wearing a new perfume for the first time, Mason told me I smelled like Aunt Natalie (who recommended and wore this perfume around Mason 3 months prior and he remembered!)


Jalen


*ALL BOY...loves tools, tractors (with buckets), dogs, and especially his cowboy boots and gun (even to the extent of sleeping with them!)


*Keeps our family amused and laughing with his funny expressions and phrases like, "Mommy it's YOUR turn to sleep by me" and when asked is age, "two and a half"


*Loves to tell stories and is pretty good at it, especially involving snakes, trolls, and Indians. By his seriousness, they are almost believable, almost...
