Amazing Moments in Time.....

All of us have those precious moments we want to freeze in time. Ya know, those times when your husband comes up behind you while your cooking supper in your apron and you smell of garlic and onions, and he kisses your neck and lingers just a moment longer......

freeze......

Or when your son wraps his arms around you and says "your the best mama in the whole wide world!!!" and means it!! And then he gives you eskimo kisses and a big smoocher right on the lips with his sticky, suckery mouth. PURE BLISS....

freeze.....

Or when you open the mail, and your best friend has sent you a card just because she loves you, and you sit on your porch and stare at the envelope before you open it, knowing it will be kind words from someone who knows you so well. Then you open it and let those words sink in deep.....and then you read it again and again..........

freeze.....

Well, last night we had one of those moments with Sir Cuteness. Okay we have one of those moments every night Sir Cuteness stays all night with us. We have a routine. As we all three get ready for bed, Sir Cuteness gets in bed with us and we wind down for the night. We start with a tickle session, so he can get all his laughter going and energy out for the night, and then we have a hug fest. It's a beautiful thing.....And then after I have my hugs and kisses and get snuggled in my covers, PaPa takes Sir Cuteness and scoops him up and then takes him to the light where Sir Cuteness gets the priveledge of turning out the lights for the night. Then PaPa, with Sir Cuteness in his arms, starts recounting the day. "We went to Neosho today...." Sir Cuteness says, "Cow..."
PaPa: Yep, we saw a cow....
SC: Horsey....
PaPa: and a horsey, and you got to eat french fries...
SC: fren friiiiii
PaPa: you got to play in the garden.....
SC: yeah, gra-mawwwwwwwwww
PaPa: You sleep good.....
SC: yeah......
PaPa: Good night 'lil buddy.....
SC: night.

freeze.....

These are the sweetest moments........ I freeze them deep in the corners of my heart.....
They are precious memories for me.......... I am a well-Blessed woman!!!

Thank you Jesus ~~

Have a Blessed Lord's day ~~

  1. Dawn,

    Aren't these moments just the best? Oh how I wish we could freeze them and replay them back as often as we wanted.

    The best part is those hand-written words in a card. I've saved every single one I have ever received seriously!

    Love and Hugs ~ Kat
