The Joys of Being A Mother!!

I just wanted to blog about this so I can look back at it one day. Yesterday (1-4-08) Addyson did the sweetest thing. She brought me books from her room and wanted me to read them to her. She walked her little self into her room, got a book off of her bookshelf, brought it to me and raised those little arms for me to pick her up. She sat in my lap, put her head down on my chest and just listened to me read like she knew exactly what I was talking about. Her favorite book was called Guess Who, Abby. It has Elmo in it. I would say "Addyson, where is Elmo?" She would point right to him and say "Elmo". I don't know why, but it just touched my heart so much that I had tears in my eyes.(Not because she said Elmo, by the way!!) She did this all day long. It made me feel so special and so close to her.
