Simple things

Today, while I was driving in my car, I was playing a Lullaby CD a friend had given to me the previous night. There is a particular song on the CD that I just LOVE. Lilly and I were driving along listening to it, and she was looking out the window when all the sudden, she started singing along. Her little voice sounded like an angel. As I was watching her in the rear mirror, smiling, she caught my eye and gave me a big smile...then went back to singing and gazing out the window. It was the most tender little moment. I couldn't help but get emotional. She is so sweet and innocent, it completely melted my heart.

It is the simple moments like that, that really make me love and treasure being a mom. I am madly, crazy and happy in love with my little Lilly Bug.

I am smiling so big right now. I almost feel responsible for that moment. Almost like I was the one who taught Lilly those words...

That is so cute. It is times like that that make you realize why you love being a Mother so much.
