I love you Mommy

These past few weeks, Collin has definately found himself in a point in his life he is just not always sure how to handle.  Bascially he has hit the "terrible two's".  He is once again having a tough time with sharing his mommy and daddy with his little sister, testing the limits with behaviors he sees at school when at home, pushing his mommy and daddy to see if he can always get his way and sooo much more.  But despite these challenges of trying to be the most patient mommy ever during this time, days like yesterday make it all SO worth it.  One of Collin's favorite things to do is to snuggle in our bed with me.  The other morning at 5:45am when I really should have been getting ready for work, especially because in order to get myself and the kids ready and out the door by 6:45 there is very little "extra" time.   But, Collin looks at me and he says, "Moomy, lay with me please".  So I go lay with him for just a minute or two knowing that I really didn't have much time.  As I was laying there he leans over, gives me a kiss and says, "I love you Mommy".  Know that was one great way to start my day:)
