A Few of My Favorite Things

1. Daily pictures of Thomas sent over the cell phone and hearing him coo while I talk to his mom on the phone.
2. Jonathan's soft coos amidst the noise of the family before he falls alseep on my shoulder.
3. Videos of Kinlie whether it's blowing kisses or walking with her favorite bag.
4. Skyping with Maddie and reading her one of her favorite books; especially the time she turned to Shandie and said, "Take me to Grammy Joey's house!"
5. Pete reaching out for me and crying, "Nammy, Nammy, Nammy!!!" as if his life depended upon it when it's time to go home.

It does, you know, right? Sometimes, his life depends on it...

It's amazing how much joy children bring, isn't it?

I was getting ready for bed and I was in the bathroom. I looked down and on the bathroom floor were a pair of Pete's shoes lined up neatly on the floor. They just looked so cute! They are less than half the size of mine.

Then, I heard Pete over the monitor. He said "Mama...mama...hold..." How could I not go in and give him a hug and tuck him in again after a plea like that?
