On Being A Happy Mom


*I love Lily's new-found love of beckoning me..."Ma!" and "Momma!" at the top of her lungs! It makes me laugh every time. (When she screams 'Ma', it reminds me of Will Ferrell screaming 'Ma, make me some meatloaf!' in that movie...was it Old School?! Well, whatever that movie was ;) )


*I love Lily being a helpful little girl now...sometimes this means throwing things away for me or helping me pat Dylan's back while we're babysitting, and sometimes this means putting my favorite flip-flops in the trash can.


*I love the way Lily lights up when Nick comes through the door (if he's home early enough from work!)...she giggles, jumps around and acts totally silly.


*I love watching Lily sleep in her crib, clutching her Amy Coe bear & 1 or 2 extra pacis, legs sprawled and snoozing away.


*I love her wet kisses that sometimes include a little lick!


*I love rocking Lily after we read our books at night, she holds on tight to my neck and buries her head...there isn't a sweeter girl.


I am truly blessed. I am a happy mom.
