Things I do not want to forget about my kids

As I was getting Miquelyn down for a nap I was thinking about a few things and wanted to write them down so I do not forget.

Jamison: I never want to forget how cute it is when she asks me very sincerely and so sweet, "So mamma, what did you do today while I was at school?" It makes me feel like we have a friendship and just like I want to know what she did at school, she want to know what I did at home. She is my sweet little peanut!

Caleb: Yesterday I was reading him his Christmas card from his teacher and at the end of it she wrote: Love Ms Michelle. He immediately said, "I do love Ms Michelle." This kid is such a lover and so sincere. He is a tender soul and I love that about him.

Asher: Even when he is trouble he says, "I need you Mamma." It melts my heart. He was supposed to be taking a nap today and I had to go in and put him back in bed. He said, "I want you to seep with me Mamma." So I laid in bed with him and wrapped my body around his chubby little one. It did not take long for him to give up. The sound of his voice saying, "I lub you mamma" melts my heart.

Miquelyn: She is a busy little body and never stops moving. When she is not happy or does not want to go to sleep she stiffens right up. Today I wrapped her in a blanket and decided to lay down with her to get her to sleep even though I had a million things to do. She was not looking to tired, but seconds after we laid down she relaxed and not long after dosed off. I am so glad I stepped away from my chaos, shut off my mind and just enjoyed the feeling of my baby snuggled up close and kissing her sweet head. Those are feelings I never want to forget.

It is impossible to write how much I love these little Munchkins, but I hope they always feel it and know it!

Car names - YES!!! I like a lot of them. The funny thing about your comment is, Talon said "I come from a car family. We CAN'T name our kids after cars." What!? You need to give him a talking to. :) He's especially dead-set against non-Chevy/Toyota names, like Bentley.
