Doesn't get better than this.....

As a mom you often find yourself in your day-today routine doing your normal day-to-day chores. Dishes, diapers, sweeping floors, diapers, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, diapers. Oh! did I mention diapers:):) hehehe. Anyway, the other day while in my daily routine of diaper changing I get to Noah's diaper, I lay him down play with him a bit talk to him give him a kiss or two and so on. Normally I would then change the diaper and the child would take off and go play as if he was being held captive by an Evil Villon who was taking away from his play time (mom's are so cruel) :):). As a mom I usually don't think twice about this being a thankless job and one that can be very trying I just do it because I love my babies and love what I do. However, there are those days, come on mom's you know you have them, when you just wish maybe for a thank you or some type of recognition. Anyway today wasn't one of them. I was just simply enjoying my day and being a mom. I get to the diaper changing part with Noah and as he stands up and gets ready to take off and go play, he stops............ He looks at me and he says............ Thank you mommy. My heart melted at that moment and that reminded me of why I do what I do and why I try my best to do it without complaint and with a thankful heart. Not so I will get the thanks, but that my kids will learn to be thankful in everything they have and do. My son blessed me so much I am beside myself. Ever since then both Caleb and Noah say thank you after diaper changes. They are some sweet boys.
