Melting

You ever have one of your kids say something that just about makes you melt? I had such an expierience last nite.

We'd just got done having devotions and everyone was doing the rounds. Ethan had already performed our nightly ritual of "hugs, kisses, cheeks and nose" (like head, shoulders, knees and toes) and went on to his dad to tell him goodnight. About 30 seconds later he came back. I was wondering if he was just too tired and hadn't realized he'd already kissed me. He stood in front of me, threw his arms around my neck and said, "Mommy, I love you now and I love you while I'm at school and I miss you while I'm at school." Then he kissed me again. Talk about feeling like a massive puddle of goo!! Sniff......sigh. I'm so having a hard time with this everyone growing up so big SO quick. Ethan has always told me that he doesn't want to grow up that he always wants to be my little Ethan. How frightening to think that in a few years he'll be thinking that mommy is just a bit insane. However, I'm going to enjoy this and continue to be that goo puddle until he decides he's had enough!!!
