I told a little guy (one of my kids' friends) today that I thought he was pretty cute. His response was, "I'm four. I'm too old for 'cute'....I'm awesome." LOL!<BR/><BR/>Miss, I was thinking that very thing when I was writing this post. Children are boundless in both their love and their forgiveness. Makes me think I need to try harder with both.<BR/><BR/>ym, I can't even think about my boys growing up and moving on. It makes me tear up. I love that I'm the number one person in their lives. I don't want any other girl swooping in and stealing their affection....grrr! Oops. I know it'll happen down the road and I keep reminding myself to soak it up while it lasts. There will be a day when they don't want to snuggle mommy anymore. :-( <BR/><BR/>Everyone, there's this great Karen Kingsbury book about last moments with your child, "Let Me Hold You Longer." It's a tear jerker, but made me really think about holding onto the precious moments because you never know when they'll be the last.Shaunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18168454800095568360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8735684183136823085.post-16014439045338128472007-03-23T14:05:00.000-06:002007-03-23T14:05:00.000-06:00You have reminded me of all that really matters. M...You have reminded me of all that really matters. Make sure you savor all of it because all to soon your going to wish that there were little feet to wake you. You are their #1 person and no one can come close to comparing. Cherish this because saddly it won't always be this way, not that they still won't love and admire you, but you won't always be #1 and at times you'll get a little lonely for someone to just hug you and tell you no matter what, your still the best in their world. Whoops, getting a little carried away.<BR/>Hug those little guys lots. Miss seeing them.<BR/>ymAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8735684183136823085.post-3847423954236075872007-03-23T08:37:00.000-06:002007-03-23T08:37:00.000-06:00Hey Shauna,Kids truely do have a way of teaching u...Hey Shauna,<BR/>Kids truely do have a way of teaching us lessons. They are still so pure of heart and are able to forgive so freely. By your post I am reminded that we all should be so forgiving. Your kids are too sweet!
