I Just Want You

The one advice that all mom's with grown children have given me these last 3.5 years has been to enjoy this time I have with my young children. Though it's a hectic time and some days are better than others, they all said that this was their favorite time and the time that they missed the most. I often reflect on this advice on days that I just want to tear my hair out and also on days when life just couldn't get any better. This week has been rough on us. We've all been sick, especially Lily. Lily's been terribly ill with fevers, puking and general miserableness. Every day all she wants is for me to hold her. Everytime I ask her if I could get her anything, all she asks for is me. My heart goes out to my little sick girl, and I feel so awful for her, yet I can't help but cherish these momments - when all my baby wants is me.
