Two True?

Tomorrow my darling little boy, my baby, is turning two years old. The time goes way too fast. The way I feel about him is beyond words. He's a part of me which is more amazing that I ever dreamed. The amount of love a mother has for her child is indescribable. I never considered how much being a mom would change the way I see the world. I see a new baby with its mother and I smile. I hear an awful story of a baby hurt or sick and I want to cry. I must tell Tyler that I love him on average of 20 times a day. He learned to hug (really hug, squeezing) this week and I can't get enough! He's so smart and so adorable. And tomorrow he'll be two. I feel proud and thrilled and sad.

I always knew this was an age I looked forward to...old enough to walk and communicate and learn. I dread the day it's not so cool to hug and kiss Mommy. I pray that day will never come!

So Happy Birthday to my sweet Tyler-Man. I love you, buddy!

Don't worry, Melissa. My oldest is 16, and he still gives me plenty of hugs. Boys love their Mommas! Hey, if you want to check out my blog, here's the link.

Best. Baby. EVER.

Mine is almost four and there are still plenty of hugs and kisses, so if he's any indication, you still have at least another couple of years :). Being a mom is definitely life-changing.

Orion still hugs me as long as his friends can't see. At home, he'll even cuddle if I ask him.

Well Melissa you will be happy to know that my boy is 25 and he still calls me Momma. When he is around he will sit next to me and hold my hand. He always give me a hug when we meet and a hug when we leave...It must just be a boy thing because Samantha is not anywhere near as loving as my Bryan. You have a lot to look forward to.
