In hind sight, my son knows when I am upset with him. All it takes is a look. And he says, "Sowwyyy mommy, it was an accident." Very sweet. And just like that, my anger dissolves. Funny how mad I can get, so quickly, but just as easily it is over. I know it is b/c he is a great kid, 99% of the time. So, it is easy for me to "forgive and forget."
I am madly in love with that little boy. He is such a blessing. So smart and such a little MAN. I can sit and watch him for hours... whether he is playing, reading, watching tv, running around like a crazy person, or sleeping. He fascinates me. Everything he does, everything he says.
Last night, I was in the living room and I could see into my bedroom. And there he was, my flip flops on, my tennis shoes on his hands, facing the mirror. He kept growling at his image, saying, "I the red power ranger, I beat you up." Then, he'd stick his tongue out and wrinkle his face up. Then, he'd laugh his buns off! Soooo funny!!!! This went on for 10 mins, when I finally decided to get the video camera, and of course he stops! Lil stinker!
He cracks me up all the time. What a joy he is. I feel that I am the luckiest woman in the world. And more blessed than anyone. I always wonder if all mothers feel this way about their children. And I also wonder if all mothers feel this way about ALL their children?
Ever feel like you have no control? Lately, my son has been testing my patience... with his words, his behavior, and his general body language. He is lucky I am not one of those "crazy" moms that loses her mind in an instant. I don't think I am very patient, and my husband tells me I am. Lately, I don't feel it. I feel as if I lose my cool very quickly, that I am quick to snap on him. That I don't tolerate much.
