Our Kids

Piper has started to say “thank you mom” when I least expect it. Now she doesn’t say it all the time but usually when she does say it I need to hear it, it is like she knows when I get run down and she kicks in her “I love mommy” attitude. This morning Lela was being her usual self centered toddler self (they both are, it is the nature of the age) and neither Jason nor I slept a wink last night so it was all we could do to get up and get moving. She wanted an english muffin and I was making said muffin, so when she asked again I looked at her and I wanted to say, “can’t you see I am making your freakin’ muffin” but instead I said “I love you Lela” and she looked up and me and said “I love you too Mom.” So even though we are all tired, cranky, croupy, coughy, gunky, junky there is a lot of love around here:)
