8 Kisses and 8 Hugs

It’s his little hand held in mine in the early morning as we head down to breakfast .

It’s Mommy can you get me all cozy on the couch? 
It’s will you come snuggle me 
I need 8 kisses and 8 hugs and 8 high fives before you go to work.

It’s your my best friend .
Mommy I just need a hug.
It’s the sound of him quietly playing in the other room.  The sound of Mickey Mouse and Buzz Lightyrear and imaginary trips to Disney World.
It’s hold my hand for just another minute.
It’s sweet little cheeks and legs that keep getting longer.

It’s can you hold my hand, before he goes to bed at night. 

It’s the way he no longer fits on my lap or in my arms. It’s how he’s outgrown so many things.

It’s how smart and sensitive he is for only 3. 

It’s no Mommy, “I’m not your sweet heart, I’m your snuggle puppy and you are my sunshine”.

It’s that it is all going by so fast. It’s that lately everything and everyone seems to be reminding me that it’s going by so fast. It’s looking back at old pictures and knowing he’s not a baby anymore. It’s how close we are to 4. 

It’s all these little things that I don’t want to end. All of these little moments that I’m so blessed with that I want to remember. All of these little details of our life that I want to capture forever. It’s how I so badly want time to slow down, just long enough for me to take it all in.

    Oh, so sweet. Yes. These moments are amazing, and heartwarming, and kind of heartbreaking, too.

    ((hugs))

    Your guy is so cute! I just got all teary because I remembered so many nights of reading "Snuggle Puppy" with my boys… and now I can't remember the last time that happened. Time goes so quickly.

    Adorable. Mine are 9 and 7 and this year I have been staring at them wondering where in the world my babies went.
