"We have to go home and do valentines today! Mommy you can help me! Except..... Do you feel good today mommy?" Said in the sweetest 4 year old boy voice you can imagine broke and swelled my heart again today. Just when I start to think I have a handle on it.....
As a matter of fact, after dropping off my daughter and carpool this morning, dropping off my son, coffee with a friend, an errand for my son's Valentine's day party, talking with/going over everything with our painters, picking up my daughter and carpool and picking up my son I really wasn't feeling good. I did feel ok this morning, but the days just destroy me still. I wanted nothing more than to lie down and rest for a few minutes, but how do you say no to big blue eyes and the sweetest 'almost boy but still baby' voice?
The answer is you can't. Seriously U.S government you need to use cute 4 year olds as interrogators because you just can't say no to them.
Anyway, we did 32 valentines (with stickers and tattoo inserts! Because I'm a masochist apparently), and laughed and chatted and had snacks and it was fantastic. Yet another day I need to remind myself these moments go fast.
So so fast. How many more years will this sweet little boy want nothing more than for his mommy to sit with him and help him with his valentines? I'm so glad mommy guilt kicked in today. Sometimes I guess it can be a good thing....😉
