Being a Mother

In light of Mother's Day, my birthday, Reagan's birthday, and in just being...I was thinking about what I love about being a mom. Here are a few:

snuggling in bed
hugs and kisses and the best 4 words out of a 3/4 year old mouth "i love you mommy"
seeing them smile
hearing sweet baby laughter
listening to Reagan read
listening to her sweet voice sing
singing together
smelling the clean, sweet smell of Kade
simple, quiet evenings
watching a child struggle with wake
praying for them
learning from them, that in spite of my bad days as a mom, the end of the day brings forgiveness
seeing the joy in their eyes from simple things
hearing Reagan's excitment when Mike comes home
having an amazing husband at my side to be their dad

What do you love?
