Jun. 15, 2009 - In My Son's Eyes
I love this boy! Jacob is (still) in the stage where he LOVES me. Throughout the day he'll just pop in to give me a hug, blow me a kiss across the room, shout out that he loves me. It melts my heart and I wish I could bottle these days forever. It's way too easy to forget all these sweet, beautiful, tender moments. Here is one I don't want to forget...
I came down to the kitchen on Saturday morning, still half asleep. My hair was probably running amok on the top of my head and I'm sure my face was still creased by the pillow I rest my head upon each night. Jacob came running up to me and embraced me in one of his famous bear hugs, looking up at me with admiration and pure love in his eyes. He hugged me and blew a kiss up to my face. My heart melted. I walked out of the kitchen and went to sit in my chair while I finished waking up. As I sat down, Jacob walked over to Jason and asked, "Daddy, how come Mommy is just so beautiful?" Being the smart man he is, Jason answered, "That's just the way God made her." Jacob skipped off and replied "I'm so glad." Jas caught my eye again and winked saying "I am too."
My boys...I love them.
