Tonight after diner we all sat on the floor and played as we do most nights. Greyson runs between his daddy and me with one toy or another, climbs all over us and just generally has a blast. Most nights we turn on the radio and cheer as Greyson shows us his latest dance moves, bopping his head, spinning circles and coming with in mere inches of knocking himself unconscious! For such a normal night in our lives, tonight I was filled with more than normal emotions. I felt this uncontrollable love and incredible pride for my family. “MY” family…. I love saying that, knowing that I have these two amazing boys in my life and that they are, very much, mine. My husband, I often feel at a loss for just how much I love him. His patience, understanding and love have made me who I am. I fear for where I would be with out him. I have loved every minute of watching him adapt to fatherhood, he is the rare man who took to it like a duck to water. He has from the second Greyson entered this world been not just a Dad, but a Father. I love knowing that Greyson will have such a role model to follow, and that he will grow up to be a strong, loving, amazing man like his daddy. And then there is my son. Greyson is the link that makes me whole, my every happiness is found in his grin. I can’t look at him or think of him with out feeling my heart burst with love.
Tonight as I watched ‘my’ boys play, I realized just how lucky I am. Life can get so busy and weekends can be full of so many chores and things to do, and I worry about this or that, and before I know it, I’ve forgotten to tell my boys just how special they are to me. So, to my boys: Thank you for making me whole, thank you for loving me for who I am, and allowing me to love you. Thank you for showing me daily, how to find happiness, how to find love, and how to have fun. I love you both with all my heart and then some.
