Motherhood

I recently read a book by Jane Clayson Johnson titled I Am a Mother. The book reflects on the choice to be a mother and how society views that choice. I love this quote from the book "You matter, because a Mothers work is Gods work." How true that quote is. We have been entrusted with these children by our heavenly father, to guide and teach them. What a special blessing that is. I LOVE being a MOM!! I love watching Cole experience and discover things for the very first time. (i know rob does also). I love seeing his face light up with amazement at the things he discovers. To me there is no greater gift than that of Motherhood.

I also wanted to add a few "Coleisms"

his favorite shape must be a circle, because he loves balls, bubbles and balloons (okay a balloon is not exactly a circle but close enough).

he gives the best hugs and kisses

he loves "mo-mo" (elmo) and "cookie" (cookie monster).

he also loves cars and trucks

he says "moe peas" when he wants more of something.

he says night, night when its bed time.

when he gets a boo-boo he needs you to kiss it right away.

I love my "SILLY" boy!!
