Love you forever

"But at night time, when that *three year old was quiet, she opened the door to his room, crawled across the floor, looked up over the side of his bed; and if he was really asleep she picked him up and rocked him back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. While she rocked him she sang:"
                                           I'll love you forever,
                                           I'll like you for always,
                                          As long as I'm living
                                           My baby you'll be. "



This picture inspired me to write this post...last night right after taking this, I picked up my 40 pound 3 year old, and just held him while he slept...and of course I stared, how could I not?? This crazy child of mine....this crazy child who I say No, don't or stop to at least 20 times in a day...this crazy child of mine who tried to flush the wrapper to a Spongebob GoGurt down the toilet... this crazy child of mine who while we were in the bathroom at the gym, unfortunately noticed that auntie flow had come in to town, and said "EWWW what is that!?" stumped as to what I was supposed to say, I tell him "It's just a "girl" thing baby".  As we are leaving, he stops at the front desk and  screamed said to 3 employees "My mommy has a girl problem in her undahweahs"  Needless to say I could not get out of there faster. This crazy child of mine, is so amazingly peacful when he sleeps. When he's dreaming of Lightening McQueen, fruit snacks and Hot Wheels.            



The quote at the top is from a children's book called 'Love you forever'  by Robert Munch...I can remember being read this book when I was a little girl just in elementary school,  and even at that age choking back tears, I was an emotional one folks. But really, this book is amazing. For those of you who don't know, its the story of a mother's love. It starts out mother with a brand new baby, and as the baby grows, the book goes through different stages of him growing and wreaking havoc on the house and his mom's nerves. Every night, his mother sneaks into his room, picks up her son, and sings to him:
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living
My baby you'll be
The story progresses, and the boy is now a man living on his own, she gets a ladder, sneaks into his apartment, and sings to him... the story continues, he gets married and has kid of his own, still she breaks into his house at night, and rocks her giant son in his sleep. At some point his mom is calling to say goodnight, because she's too old to come sneak in, the man drives to his moms house, rocks her in her sleep and sings the same song.

 I can't get through it with out crying. And last night I felt the same way. This crazy little child ANGEL of mine....who even if he's driving me nuts, can still melt my heart with just a smile,  who will always make me laugh when he runs away from me giggling even though I'm asking him to stop, who will always be a baby even though I'm getting arms like a line backer cause he's so heavy and growing so fast, this sweet little BABY who showers me with kisses every day, and tells me "I love you mommy, you're my he-woah (hero)"

He's MY hero!! 

I'll love you forever
I'll like you for always
As long as I'm living
my baby you'll be!

It's the little things in life!

5.obsessed by or quick to use the item indicated (usually used in combination): a trigger-happy gangster. Everybody is gadget-happy these days.


        I am one of those people who is happy happy happy smile smile smile on the outside, but I'm freaking out on the inside...I, being an Aries, have to be in control of everything, or I try to be. (unsuccessfully half the time)   I need a who, what, when, where, and why for everything, and if you can give me more information that's even better! Most would easily consider me tightly wound, but at the same time I'm as laid back as can be...are you confused yet??  Welcome to the club.

      So in order to be truely happy as much as possible, I find the little things in life and focus on those....The little things in life, along with the obviously big things in life, such as family, my amazing little boy, and just being alive every day in general, are what gets me by. I have to laugh at the little things, be easily entertained, and smile at everything, I even smile when I'm nervous. It's really weird actually. I'll be the one grinning like an idiot when everyone else is sweating bullets.

You want to know what makes me happy? These are a few of my favorite things....singing in my best Julie Andrews voice (It isn't pretty....be glad you aren't here) You'll want me to sing Tenor......... TEN OR 20 FEET AWAY!!! bwahaha....you know you laughed!  That little saying brings me to the first thing that makes me happy... I LOVE cheesy lines....funny little quips that I use all the time, I have one for everything....
        
         -"I love you"= I love you like a fat kid loves cake
         -"You catch my drift?"= You wipin' what I'm spillin' doggie?
         -"I got this"= I'm on it like swimwear
         -"I want that now"= I'm on it like a bum on a ham sandwhich
         -"Look who just showed up!"=Well butter my butt and call me a bisquit, look who's here!
         -"I'm on a roll"= Call me buttah, cause I'm on a roll!
        -"Let's get out of here"= Lets make like seagulls and get the flock out
        -"I'm out of here"= I'm gunna make like a baby, and head out. OR I'm gunna make like Tom and cruise
           OR I'm out like a brown trout.
         -"You're such a smart fella"=You'se such a fart smella!

I have a few more....howwwwevvverrrr....we won't be using them here, as some of them are very politically incorrect. Moving on... I also am entertained like you wouldn't believe, by babies laughing.... I laugh so hard it brings me to tear when a cute, chunky lil squish face monkey is laughing so hard he can hardly breath...it makes my day. I have such a video for you.... I dare you not to laugh your ass off.


       You wanna know what else??? Face Book notifications.... I am a bonafied, certified, proven guilty, Face book addict. I actually get excited, when I log on and have new responses to my posts... I am the same way with my beloved blog. Hey, what can I say? It's not my fault...I'm an Aries....I love the positive reinforcement. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it y'all. Sooooo make me smile folks....pleeeeeeeease!

      Opening my mailbox, and hidden under a pile of stupid coupons, and random advertisements lies and sweet little gem.... deserving of a "yesssssssss" and a fist pump right in my front yard...as if my neighbors don't think I'm weird enough, the 'Rolling Stone' is the most bad ass thing that could come in the mail....besides cash money of course... *wink wink nudge nudge say no more say no more*  It makes me so happy knowing theres one on the way.... verra verra happy!

This one made me particularly happy!
