The cool thing about being a parent


Lots of times babies cry, toddlers flip out at exactly the inopportune moment and little boys have a mouth that can't quit as far as sass goes. I can't go further than that because my oldest child is 6.5 years old. So that is my universe.

BUT, tonight, after e-mailing my dear friend who lost her baby a few months ago...I went upstairs to get ready for bed. Decided I needed a glass of H20, and as I walked out the door saw a post-it note my 6.5 year old put on my door tonight during bedtime saying "I love you Mom and Dad." My boys have been into post-it notes lately at bedtime. Usually it is about pokemon or darth vader. Today, it was I love you.

Honestly, does life get better than that?!?! I am very loved, I deeply love and I am thankful. Yes, I am cheesy, but life is quite good and I like to give a nod when that is the case.

It was a really good day.

That post it is a keeper! Put it with your other treasures and bring it back out when work and life craziness starts back up and you need a smile.
