Special Time

Yesterday I got to spend special time with my youngest.  We just had the best time.  We colored while listening to Veggie Tales music, were able to just talk together, play outside and have a wonderful time.  It was sublime.  She and I are connected in a way that no one can tear apart.  She said something about a car and I said " X what would you do if you had a car?"  She immediately replied "I'd drive here to you mommy.  I don't know how to get here though."  I said "X my heart would tell you how to get here."  She smiled.  In times like that I know that I've still got their hearts and minds.  God blesses me at least with that!  

Unfortunately she wasn't allowed to spend the night but we still had a great time.  I love being a mom so much.  Oh, I asked her what she wanted to be when she grew up and for the first time ever she said "I want to be a mommy like you."  What a compliment.
