It amazes me sometimes how much you can love your kids. It's unfathomable that it is possible to love someone THAT much. It's not for any real reason, it's not like he's done anything super special to set him apart from other kids...it's just that he is mine. I love him for who he is, for all the areas where he does excel and for all the areas where he could stand to improve. He makes me so happy. It's the simple day-to-day, every day mundane details that I enjoy the most.
I love being able to take him outside every day for our walk or bike rides. I love being able to teach him how to love and enjoy reading books. I love hearing him ask for a drink, when he says "agua" - it is just the cutest thing I've ever heard. I love singing songs with him, and watching him trying to do all the little hand gestures with me. I love that when we count to 3 now that he uses his fingers to count along. I love his fearlessness. I love watching him grow. I love that such a short time can pass and make such a big difference with his maturity. I love being his Momma and if he's the only one I ever get, I would be happy.

YUP. You're one heck of a LUCKY mom! He's a great kid with great parents and ya'll got a GREAT LIFE. '
I truly love how you spend so much time with him and I know some days are not perfect, but enjoy him the way you do. That is going to plant the foundation for a healthy, confident & loving human being.
He's your son. When you wrote this post I thought how great HF's plan is that he allows us to have the privilege of being parents just like him. What a gift & you appreciate it and relish it. You're a great mom Lizzie! I also love Leo's fearlessness. I think he gets that from you!
I can't wait to be where you are! When you post blogs like these, I get super excited :)
You are one lucky mama. Your little boy is so cute!
This almost made me cry.
I'm proud of you . . . and so, so happy that you have that perfect little imp.
You're such a great mom--that kid could never find a better one.
