Freeze Time

Tonight was a night that I would love to press the "freeze" button on time. My children are not cuddlers. They never have been. I am hoping after much persuasion, they will turn into cuddlers. But for now, we cherish those few, and I mean FEW, times in between where they will snuggle you for just a moment or two to let you know that they do in fact still love you very much. Tonight my little Pea fell asleep on the couch having her bottle. I went to pick her up and she woke up but I decided to snuggle her up in my arms and attempt a late night snuggle in the midst of her confusion and weariness. She did not refuse! My mind was already set that she would once again refuse the snuggle and just want to be in her bed. Instead, she snuggled in my arms and I sat there on the couch reading my book for an hr and a half!!! This is a night that I would like to just keep on freeze. When I finally decided to put her up in her bed, (not my decision, it was my husbands!) she gave me 2 kisses through her grogginess without me even asking for them. It took everything for me not to just burst into floods of mom tears or jump up and down. Being a mom is truly the BEST thing I have EVER done....besides marrying my amazing husband! I could not imagine my life without my two little bundles that make me laugh every day, put a smile on my face every time I look at them and make my heart pound a mile a minute with love. I cannot explain the feeling being a mom gives you. You moms out there know what I am talking about! I never understood the love a mother has for her child until I became one myself. I would do ANYTHING for these two little loves!
