FROM "STOLE MY HEART"

This morning, like most mornings, both the boys were up before my alarm even went off wanting to watch cartoons. Brandon got up and turned on the living room TV and then came back to bed for those last few minutes before the day begins. After my alarm did go off, Brandon got up and headed to the shower. I, on the other hand, hit the snooze button and then dozed back to sleep. After the second time my alarm reminded me it was time to wake up, Maddox came wandering into my dark bedroom. He crawled up into the bed, got underneath the covers and snuggled up next to me. He wasn't going back to sleep, or even talking, he was just cuddling. It was awesome!

You are a very wise woman to take advantage of rare moments such as these. Keep them close to your heart.

One of my very favorite memories of you as a young girl is when you would haul all of your barbies into the kitchen and play in the middle of the floor as I was cooking or cleaning. Yes, you were in the way but that was fine with me. We were together!

That's funny! Maddox does the EXACT same thing! He carries all his play castles and little figures into the kitchen and blocks the entire walkway to play while I cook! :)
