[M.M.10] remember this.

Welcome back to Monday Mamalogues,

'linking up to share the beauty and breakdowns of motherhood'.
 

On a good day my brain is the equivalent of day old porridge.

--------

Soo...  where was I?

Oh, right, listen up here brain... these are some things I want you to remember:

* I want you to remember how this one year old boy squeals with delight when he sees you in the morning.

* The way he delicately plucks each cheerio with his thumb and forefinger and smacks his full lips around it with total satisfaction.

* Remember how every time you hold him he enthusiastically points to nowhere and squeals:

"Bawuuh??!"

* How he laughs at his older sister's antics on his behalf.... bouncing with excitement over her every "Hudson... BOO!".

* I want you to remember how every night his rosy cheeks lay sleepily on your shoulder after nursing... and in that moment, you want to just hold him there forever. 

* I also want you to remember this three and a half year old girl... this lil' dynamo of growing personality.

* Remember how she crawls into bed every morning beside you.. (and wants to rush downstairs for 'snacks/shows/snuggles')...so you rub her back just to have a few more moments under the warm covers.

*  She loves to colour with markers, to paint, and pretend... she also loves to give out orders: "now you be kitty, and you say this, and I'll say that"

"you're seat belt isn't on... put your seat belt on"

"I should visit Grandma and Grandpa....that's a good idea don't ya think?"
"...whaddya think of that?"

* I want to remember how addicted she is to snuggling... it's like her love language.

* How she collects every stone, branch and leaf she sees on our walks.

* The way she likes to drink her 'tea' with a spoon.
* How cute she looks with her pixie haircut.

 Oh, and this:

Just a few of the moments I don't want to forget... 

I think it's almost been a year since I wrote one of these lists.

What do you want to remember?
