I've Got a "Mom Buzz"

Jack and I have really been enjoying a little one on one time since the other two kids went back to school. Having the entire day to hang out has been such a pleasure. I'm really making a concerted effort to not clog up my schedule with responsibilities that take me away from quality time with my little guy.

Yesterday was one of the best days I can remember having in a really long time. We got up and got Todd and Kate off to the bus, then promptly sat down and started reading. A bookshelf full of books and two hours later we decided to build a big train track. Then we colored some pictures, ate some lunch, and sat down in the rocking chair where we rocked (I'm not even kidding about this!) for 3 hours. We just sat and sang and rocked and snuggled until he fell asleep. How much better can it get?

I love being a mom. :)
