I was feeling very sentimental and overwhelmed the other day…in a good way. And wanted to convey all this raw, wonderful emotion to Angelica and Oscar.
Me: You guys, we are so lucky…we have so many blessings. We have our health and we have each other and most important we have Jesus in our hearts.
Oscar: Mom, do worms have hearts?
Me: Well, um, I am not sure Oscar. But what I am saying is that we have so much to be thankful for. We are happy and healthy. We have a home and our family and our pets and …
Oscar: Mom, did you know some aliens have 9 arms and legs?
Me: Okay, that’s great, Oscar. Do you hear what Mommy is saying? I want us to always count our blessings.
Angelica: Mommy, my dolly has to go potty.
It may not have seemed like it but I am sure they were hearing me.
xoxo
