Guest guest Posted July 27, 2002 Report Share Posted July 27, 2002 has had the worst time going to sleep recently. As a result, I also have not had much sleep. Well, tonight made all that frustration and lost sleep SO worth it. I just went in and laid down with in his bed. The following ensues: " Mommy? " " Yes, Ry? " Rya sits up a little, and looks me dead in the eyes. " I love you Mom. You good Mom for me and . " Then he reaches over, gives me a big hug, and kiss, and cuddles up next to me like he used to do when he was nursing. I just laid there, stunned tears rolling out of my eyes, until I recovered, and whispered, " I love you too, " " That good idea Mom. I goin sleep now. You goin sleep too. You sick, Mom. You need sleep. I take care of you. Night Mom. " I laid there with that little boy, my miracle boy, for whom I have gone through so much mental and emotional anguish, and though, these are the moments that make all that pain ad worry and heartbreak worth it. These rare and shining moments, that glisten amongst your memories like polished diamonds, needing no setting or embellishments to keep them noticed. These moments that give you that rare glimpse into your children's minds and hearts, letting you know, in their own tiny and impossibly huge way that no matter how important cars or trucks or Powerpuff Girls may become, you are still the most important person in their tiny little worlds. Moments like these make being a Mommy so worth it. " It is a curious thought, but it is only when you see people looking ridiculous that you realize just how much you love them.
