The Power is out...what a moment

On Friday our power went out in the morning. Will was a bit disappointed when I had to heat his milk up the old fashioned way, with hot water. He and I were sitting on the living room floor watching the sun come up and out of the blue, he rested his head on my shoulder. It was so sweet.

I looked at him as he snuggled up to me and then I turned and looked outside. Here comes the lovey dovey moment...he looked up at me, grabbed my face and turned it towards his and then rested his head back on my shoulder. What a mommy moment I was having. I started to tear up! Every time a special moment happens with him or he reaches a milestone or I watch something that touches me I start to tear up! It's like all of a sudden you become a mom and water works appear? Do you have the mommy tears?

I asked Lew last night if he thought Will would mind me calling him bubsy when he was 16 and Lew was like yeah that's not going to happen. For now I will enjoy each and every mommy moment I can get, because this baby now toddler is growing up too quickly!

Happy Weekend to everyone! Hope the sun is shining where you are...

Sun is shining like crazy...I hate it when the power goes out...and technically I am supposed to be doing chores now for the people we have coming over tonight. Is it wrong to not care?

So weird. I had so many friends all over america with the same issue this weekend. I guess the crazy storms have effected everyone in some way or another.
