This has been my thought lately...."I can't believe I get to be his mom!!" I seriously have had this thought this week many times....
I've marveled at how much he is learning! He is constantly watching and mimicking especially Ava and Coop! They have been so good to include him in their play usually.
I have had this same thought...I can't believe I get to be his mom!....while holding him and trying to comfort him while he is sick! Below is a picture Matt took with me cashed out and Hudson finally asleep during one of our rough sick stretches. *Notice the pool of drool on my shoulder:)* Don't get me wrong...I've had my moments especially in the middle of the night with lack of sleep trying to comfort him and it has been hard! I've battled those thoughts of wanting to hold him all night long because he hasn't had a momma to do this most of his life swinging to thoughts of I cannot do this right now because I am exhausted!
Hudson is a true joy! I am so very thankful God chose me to be his momma! He has been through so much in his short life and God hasn't left him in any of it! We are learning how much he loves life....
I love his laugh,
how he loves to make other people laugh,
how smart he is,
how hard he is trying to communicate with us,
how he is wants to be independent in some ways,
how he plays with cars and balls and babies and his eyes light up with new things,
how he ventures out but always seems to circle back to make sure we are still there,
how he lays his head on my shoulder at night and "sings"along with me as I sing at bedtime - ok,this really might be my favorite melt my heart thing right now:)
Here are a few pictures of a moment we captured where Hudson learned how to say "cheese" for the camera! We had lots of laughs which means he did it over and over and over and over to get more laughs:)
