A few thoughts on Motherhood

There are some things I will miss terribly when my kids grow up:
My kids asking if we can cuddle on the couch
My kids cuddling up to me as we read books
Their incredible imaginations
Their honesty and true goodness
All the time I get to spend with them... just us.
Princess dresses
Capes, Swords, Mario costumes
Toddler Lingo
Huge hugs
The words.. "Mommy" with open arms running towards me when I come home
Asking for permission for everything
A Quiet house at 8:00 pm (ahhhhhhh)
Movie nights with popcorn watching Curious George
  The list goes on and on......


Things I Won't Miss When My Kids are Older.....
"Mom... come and wipe me!"
 ..... wiping buts over and over again
"Mom.. I have to go poop"  (like I have to give them permission)
 Sacrament Meeting with toddlers
 Fake Cries, Temper Tantrums for no apparent reason
 (hmmmm... thought I'd have more things I would miss when I thought about writing this blog... nothings really coming to mind right now... These years are pretty darn priceless).
