MILESTONES

NOTE TO SELF: Today, (Monday, January 19th) is one of those "firsts" that we parents are supposed to record. This one is DEFINITELY worth the documentary effort. For today, as I sat and listened to dh reading a science lesson to our 3 oldest, my recently turned 2 year old, standing on his kiddie rocker, leaned his sweet little head on my shoulder and said, "Uff oo!", which in Brandon speak means, "Love you."
This is the first time he has ever said these precious words first, without any prompt from us.

"Uff oo" too, little man!
I sure do.

I know exactly how you feel. Believe me, it feels the same way when it's a grandchild saying Love You for the first time. Sweet, sweet.

And I'm guessing right after you had to go get the mop since your hearts were all melted all over the floor, right? Those are the best moments! Love it :)

Toni, thanks so much for the sweet comment you left on my blog. The relationship I have with Fletcher is so very special and it blessed me to know others can see that.

Oh the first love you! How wonderful!
