I carry your heart with me

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in

my heart)i am never without it(anywhere

i go you go,my dear;and whatever is done

by only me is your doing,my darling)

                                                      

i fear no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want

no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)

and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant

and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows

(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud

and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows

higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)

and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

Favorite moments

There are a few moments that happen daily in my house that remind me every day just how lucky I am to not only be a mother, but to be THE mother to the most adorably perfect little boys ever created. 

(In no particular order)

Walking into the boys' room in the morning to get Oliver. 

As soon as he lays eyes on me his face lights up! He gets the biggest, sweetest smile on that sweet cherubic face of his and waves at me in excitement. Instantly I excitedly says "BABY!! Good morning Ollie!" and he climbs up to the railing and starts with the sweet "gimme gimme hands" wanting me to pick him up. It's my favorite way to wake up.

Mine and Wesley's daily snuggle session.

Every single day Wes and I snuggle for at least 30 minutes in my bed. Usually it's when he wakes up and comes in my room, sometimes it's later in the day, and sometimes it's at night when we both decide he should sleep with mommy. We talk about what we're going to do that day or the next, dreams we had and how much we love each other. 30 minutes of bonding and bliss. We both crave that mommy/Wesley time that for 3.5yrs was endless, and now can be hard to come by. 

Checking in on the boys after they've gone to bed. 

On my way to bed every night I go into the boys room to check on them. I always go to each of them and rub their face and tell them good night and I love them one more time. Best way to end the night.

Oliver's XOXO.

Oliver still does the open mouth baby kisses and they are so sweet! Sometimes he slips a little tongue in with it and sometimes a little teeth lol. My favorites are when he gets so caught up in love he gives me a kiss and then grabs my face and pulls me in for more and won't let go until he's done! He also gives the sweetest squeeze hugs ever. He's so loving and sweet and he sure does love his mama. 

Random nice words from Wesley. 

It's not secret that Wesley is THE sweetest child in existence. I am sure of it. Not a day goes by that he doesn't have something ubber sweet to lift my spirits and make me smile. Any time I get dressed to go somewhere and even on days when I'm just in PJs he tells me I look beautiful or pretty and occasionally handsome :). Every day he tells me he loves me. I love when he tells me I'm "the best mom he's ever loved" and we argue over who loves who the most. 

Lucky.
