Three Things I Want To Remember About My Kid

What I want to remember:
- how it feels to come back to my son after I've been gone a few hours. That moment when they run up to you, absolutely ecstatic, yelling "MOMMY!!!" and I get showered with kisses and big hugs. I think it's my happiest moments.
- the feeling of my baby falling asleep while nestled into my arms.
- the silly little things that come out of his mouth that make me smile uncontrollably, like when I ask him if he wants snack/juice/go for a walk and he replies in a thoughtful voice "Yes, mommy. Please." or if I ask him what his name is and he smiles and says "Mmmm... Shrek!"

I just hope he remembers how happy these things make me. I love that boy so much it makes me cry just to type this out.
