The mommy mommy part.

There's this little part of him that wasn't there before.
The "mommy mommy" part.
He just never had that before and I love it so much.
The thought of losing it scares me more than anything.
I think about the possibility of "losing this" every time we gain anything new now...

Aiden says "mommy mommy I made a pwengwin" and my heart just feels so big.

The thought of one wrong move taking the connection away- a vaccination, a food, a medication, the wrong place- the wrong time-

I think about EVERYTHING being possibly toxic now- the exterminator- the paint- the detergent- everything.

I know what you mean. It thrills my heart every time I walk in the door now and he says "Hi Grandma," instead of running away from me screaming "noooooo!"

you are only moving forward now! There's no fear (in Christ Jesus) and there's no fear here. You're building, building. Just like Henry is, and do my limitations limit him? Oh yes. Just like my parents limits impeded me in some way, while in other ways caused me to flourish. Regular parent things are wanting to give it all and wanting not to injure.
So you're behaving like a Regular parent!
I'll see you soon -- soon as I get my schedule figured out :)

He hugged me on Saturday and I felt I was floating. Then he gave me a high-five, too. I almost started crying!! Happy tears! Happy tears!
