I couldn't care for a baby right now if I had one but I still look longingly at them when I happen upon one in public. I have those moments still with Emmett quite often and it actually is more than just remembering him as a baby--it is as if I am remembering who he really is. When I get to hold him when he is trying to drift off he smiles when I kiss him. It's the sweetest thing. And so I smother him with kisses and he just takes it and keeps smiling--eyes shut.Sharleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13966304298477030346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8087509985980178741.post-54020923882781516242009-09-27T17:21:35.216-07:002009-09-27T17:21:35.216-07:00Beautiful!

Generally, I just rush through life without enjoying the moment. On occasion I stop and take in the scenery: me doing laundry, my handy man hanging the mirror. . .so domestic. (Not quit as beautiful as yours but, I do like to nuzzle my nose down in the freshly laundered towels!)<br /><br />You are a wonderful mother, your kids are blessed to have you!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12711509613575485046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8087509985980178741.post-11317402771879986782009-09-27T14:27:46.318-07:002009-09-27T14:27:46.318-07:00I love THOSE moments!

I keep thinking Emily might be our last baby, with all my complications, so every morning I just lay there staring at her face kissing her and putting my check against hers. I can't get enough of those moments! I am glad you got to hold your little boy for awhile while he slept in your arms. Your kids are just adorable!Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04413764822230506935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8087509985980178741.post-67408700916224431152009-09-27T12:28:27.364-07:002009-09-27T12:28:27.364-07:00Beautiful.

Not because of the "terrible 3's" (I've been told they're way worse than 2's), but because he won't be a baby any more, but a bona fide little boy.

I love those sweet moments that remind us what's important.

I love it and your post just reminds me that it won't be that way forever! Tonight when I laid him down, I was covering him with his blankets and I said "nigh night" and he just looked at me and waved. :) It was so cute. Love those little moments. Makes all the frustrations of the day seem so lame! I liked your more serious post that made us think and be grateful! I still laughed though, when you said you had forgotten his actual birthday:) Cute picture!Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17724473118149240992noreply@blogger.com
