Because I am your Mom

Ok, I stole this idea from a friend, who stole it from one of her friends...it MUST be a good idea!! They say imitation is the most sincere form of flattery ;)

Because I am your mom, I get to snuggle you in the morning and just after your nap.
Because I am your mom, I get to comfort you when you are sad or hurt.
Because I am your mom, I get to hear you say Mommy over and over just so you can make sure I am still close enough to you to be heard.
Because I am your mom, I get to let my hair down (literally) so you can play with it use it for comfort.
Because I am your mom, I no longer know or care what the latest fashions are for me, but you better believe you look cute!
Because I am your mom, I have grown to love the Wiggles, Elmo, and Laurie Berkner and I know the words to their songs better than I know my own phone number.
Because I am your mom, I love to splash in the water.
Because I am your mom, I love to draw and color with you.
Because I am your mom, I get to hear your laughter everyday!
Because I am your mom, I am a little more cautious with my words and my actions because I know your are watching my every move and listening to every word .
Because I am your mom, I can kiss away the pain of a boo-boo.
Because I am your mom, I have found joy in the little things like reading you books and singing silly songs.
Because I am your mom, I am always on the lookout for trains, diggers, trucks, airplanes, clouds and birds!
Because I am your mom, I can put off the house work just a little bit longer to push you on the swing or go for a walk.
Because I am your mom, I have am reminded daily while we are dancing together that I have no rhythm!
Because I am your mom, I now remember how much fun bubbles are!
Because I am your mom, I have learned what a hard job this really is but that the rewards are priceless.
Because I am your mom, I have begun to love in a whole new way and I have learned things about myself I would never have known.
Because I am your mom, I am the luckiest woman in the world!!
