These are the times you will look back on. It is rare that you will remember the 'perfect' days, but rather that five minutes or less when your child opens the lens of the world a little wider.
A little brother sister love on a Saturday morning. I'm sure the hubby is happy he's sleeping through this one. And now mommy will break for yet another cup of coffee.
''Buddy get off my part of the couch! Mommy he's touching me!!!'' ''Norwahhh! Stop it Norwahhhh. My pillow, my blanket, my cartoon. Stop!!!!!''
Nothing like torturing your kids with a quest in southern California to find a recycling place. And point out all the beautiful sites.
*listened to this dreamy thought from the back seat, ''Look it's Paris!'' Ummm, no no it's not. That is a ridiculously large powerline tower, if only we were in Paris instead. Maybe a little too much Gaspard and Lisa.
Getting so caught up in housework for ummm, the first time in a long time that this one happened.....
had a moment. OMGosh, the back door is open, Trent are you outside? Trent? Trent, buddy where are you! Proceed to me running in and out of the house.....giggle under my bed after being a mad woman for what seemed like eternity. Never been so relieved and wanting to throttle child at same time. Oh, those baby blues never looked so precious tearing up because mommy scared us. Never again buddy, OK?
Then your heart skips a beat out of pure joy.
''Norwah, don't cry, I sing you a song. Don't cry, I sing you a song. La la lah.'' My little man putting words to a made up melody of his own to cheer up sister.
It doesn't really get better on most days. All the fluffy edited pictures you take can not capture this, only your heart can.
