That's My Sweet Boy

For no particular reason, Jack just told me, "Mommy, you are so beautiful that it makes me want to cry happy tears. I thought that even before I was born."

Oh. Em. GEE.

Okay, a little weird? Yeah, kind of but my boy is nothing if not quirky.

False? Indeed. I am uglier than I have ever been in my life by far. He doesn't see that, though. No, in his eyes, I really am beautiful. And his thinking that makes it so.

Heartfelt? Totally. He really means it. He loves me so much. Not even close to as much as I love him, of course, but he loves me with his whole self and that makes me smile no matter how crazy life gets.

It's nice to know that he was thinking of me before he was born just like I was thinking about him.

He is even more perfect for me than I imagined he would be. Just like his sisters.

Lucky, lucky me.
