Moments

I love the moments involved in changing my boy.  When he looks me in the eyes and excitedly repeats lists for me to repeat after him.  He might list favorite foods.  He might list names of his favorite shows, or he might just repeat lines from a book or show.  He tells me the list of the day and is thrilled every time I play along and repeat after him.  After I finish changing him, he holds my shoulders, looks into my eyes and finishes his list.  I can see the love and joy in his eyes as he connects with me.  And I cherish that.  I hold the feeling of his hands on me and his eyes looking at me in my heart.  And I am filled with love for my boy.
