I Love being your Mom...

 

 

Love how your mouth circles into a small yawn. 

 

 

I Love that you became my favorite reason to lose sleep, listening to your little sneezes and hiccups and the sounds you make while you sleep.

 

 

I love how you often hold my hand.  I love how your tiny fingers fit perfectly in the gap of my fingers.

I love how you motivate me to operate in this world with more patience, compassion and mindfulness.

I love your spirit and the joy you bring to our family.

 

 

I love how you make me proud to be your mother.

Maybe when you're older ...

Last week, Skyley came up to Kristopher and me and said ...

Skyley - "Look, look ..."

Us - "What, Skyley?"

Skyley - "A doggie ..."

Us - "Oh, do you see the puppy? Isn't he cute?"

Skyley - "I wanna get one!"

Us - "Oh ... okay, maybe for your next birthday."

About ten minutes later ...

Skyley - "A baby ..."

 Us -"Yeah, isn't she cute?"

Skyley - "I wanna get one!"
