You make me giggle.

:)

As I teach maya new things you and I have special moments. I frequently place maya's hands on others faces and say the name. Hands on my face "mammas face" then hers "mayas face" then yours "brothers face". I stopped today and put my hands on your sweet face saying "sonshines face" you responded without missing a beat with your hands on mine "my hearts face". Your love for me lifts me.

Love you sonshine.

Every night.

Every night I give you a kiss for you to keep until morning, when you wake me up by giving it back.

Every night we say "I big love you" and compete who has the most.

Every night before I go to sleep, as I pass your door I sneak in and kiss you again...because I need it :)

I love this. I love us.

Tonight you thought it'd be funny to interrupt my sweet night time heart to heart by saying "okay goodnight" every time I spoke, and we giggled about it together. We're so good together baby. I'm so happy to be your mahmee.

Thank you, thank you.
I big love you.

Cheez.

Unprovoked. You wrote this. And you presented it to me.

And I cried.

You're so so smart.
And so so proud of yourself.
I'm so so proud of you.

Oh baby. I love you to pieces.

Unprovoked.

You asked if you could give me a tattoo. Then wrote "mom" on the very same tummy that carried you. Amongst these souvenirs you left on my worldly body you wrote this word...something so sweet in its nature it sits among the souvenirs of my soul. You also, without any help, wrote your version of "I <3 mom. I <3 dad". Then asked for help with mayas name and wrote underneath "maya <3 I". Yes baby. We DO love you.

You're the bestest thing my soul could ever know. And we three are lucky to have you.

:)

youd think my son was 13 not 3 with as many times as i say "get your hand out of your pants jude"

nightly routine

now at night you give me a kiss...one that i so lovingly give to you so yuou can keep it safe til morning. today about 2 hours after we woke you got wide eyed and said "mahmee i forgot to give you back your kiss!" so sweet!

youre amazing with maya. you love to make her laugh. and now you and i tell each other "i big love you." "i big love you too!" it makes the simple i love you, that much more. i love you buggy.

Share jar!

This is our new thing! For every good thing you do (pick up your toys, share a drink or food, help with maya, "help" daddy cook or mow the lawn) youll get a little change money for the share jar. Once its full, we'll take it down to the humane society, or to another charity if you want, and we'll share the money! Its gonna be good i think, to teach you chores and helping others! I love your heart son!



Today we took ten dollars to the humane society and you gave it to the lady for the cats and dogs. Then we got to feed them treats before we left! How fun! always keep this giving spirit little one. and show your sister hows its done. im SO proud of you Sonshine.

3 year visit....6 months late...woops!

Llove you baby!

Matchies!

Grapes!

You love the big ones.
I love the little ones.
One of the hundreds of thousands of reasons that we are soul mates.

Thank you for being my sonshine.
