26 Hugs

>>  Wednesday, June 17, 2009

Being a mother is one of the hardest things I do. Everyday. I find the rewards are often hidden. I find myself searching for the good, as I lose myself. Lost. Never sure of what I am doing. Because of this, when my boys and I are able to share some of the sweeter moments, they truly are sweet!

Recently, I awoke to Mo-tay. Who had climbed into bed with Kyle and I. The sun was shining through the bay window of my room, and he was sweet. He curled up next to me (which in itself is unusual) and we talked. We talked about all sorts of things, most of it fairly irrelevant, yet priceless. Near the end of our conversation I asked for a hug. My request met with: “I’m all out”

“All out?” I said. “Do you want some of mine?”

His reply? “Yes! 26! I want 26 hugs”

Done deal. 26 hugs I gave. For him. I’ve got plenty to spare.... for him!

Ohhhhh.
Aweeeeee.
That is such a sweet post and it brings back all sorts of warm & fuzzy memories for me. Now when I hug my guys I get "whisker burn". LOL

That's so sweet. :) I wonder why 26, and not an even 30?

I love monkey hugs! But, to be honest, when I'm done, I'm done. I can only handle so much close contact. Poor kids.

I love how HE was all out, but he could still take (give) 26 to you. The little sweetheart.

I love it! Those moments are the absolute best. They make all the hard mommy moments melt away.
