Not for reals of course, but in a "mommy caught a super precious moment and never wanna forget it" kind of way! Quinn and I checked on Asa tonight to find him sharing all of the room he had on his bed with his dear friends. His bed is really small people, which tells me what kind of person he is. Asa is sweet, selfless and kind. Such a small, cute act of kindness. He has no idea what a proud mom I am of him tonight.
It was a long, hard day today, with lots of tantrums, timeouts and frustration. But this moment with my boys makes me forget it all, and I truly feel like the luckiest girl in this universe. Who ever said being a mom is a thankless job??
Asa grew up right before my eyes today. That sweet little 2 year old LOVES his binky. LOVES IT. I will even admit how much I love that thing! He only got it at nap time and bed time, but that tiny piece of plastic was magical. We all relied on it. But as of today, it is gone. Yes, it is bitter sweet. We took him to target and had him pick out a toy in place of his much loved binky. We walked the aisles picking and choosing different toys and finally came across one we could not pry out of his arms. So we took his talking dinosaur to the checkout and he walked over to the trash can and threw his binky inside. I almost cried. I felt like it was such a big moment. My baby is growing up before my eyes and I can't stop it. Tonight before bed he asked for it but remembered he had his dinosaur and has now been in bed now since 8:30. I am SO proud of my little Asa.
