One of the Many Reasons

There are a lot of reasons I love being a "mom", "mommy", "mommeeeee" & my favorite "mama". Sometimes in the everyday chaos that is my life I forget to reflect on these moments. Last night I was woken up at 12:50am because Joey is sick. Then again at 2:45am, 3:40am & 4:20am because Jimmy keeps rolling over from his back to his belly & then can't figure out how to get back over to his back. So this morning as I was cleaning up the kitchen after breakfast & just going through the motions of what moms do I was reminded of just one of the reasons I LOVE being a mama. Johnnie came over to me & hugged my legs & said thank you. When I asked what for? He replied "I don't know." (His favorite phrase of late). So I bent down to talk to him & he hugged me & said "I love you mama." I love you more baby boy! Thanks for the reminder.
