My Little Charmer


This evening as I was walking Ryland into my bedroom for his snack and bedtime cartoon I noticed an amazing sunset and I told the kids to look outside to see the beautiful colours Jesus put in the sky tonight for us to look at. So Ry and Lexi gathered by the window and I stood behind them and Ry looked up at me and said "mommy you're more beautiful then that and that's a lot beautiful" So sweet! I just gave him a big hug, I hope he stops growing up so fast, I love that he loves me so much and wants to spend time with me, that he runs off the bus (literally) and gives me a huge hug everyday after school, that he was so excited that I signed up to volunteer for fieldtrips and then he asked if i would sit with him on the bus, the list goes on and on but it all points to him loving his mommy so much right now and i know that will soon turn into wanting to rather be with friends and him even later being embarrassed of me and Jord. I am truly enjoying it now!

Jodi, so true! I have been thinking very similar things with Eli lately. He just loves me, LOVES me. And it melts my heart and makes me so happy. And I realize often that I need to soak this up and remember this for the times later in his life that my heart will break when he is embarrassed of me and not wanting to spend anytime with me or Ben.
So sweet what he said about the sunset! :)
