letters from my sons

dear mommy,

now that i'm six, i know that i want to run through
the waves in my spider man shoes. i don't care if
they still light up. i'm sure.

love, j.


dear mommy,

thank you for carrying me around the grocery store tonight.
four is the bestest number, but you made me feel
like your baby again. i like that.

love, b.


dear mommy,

in both my years, i've never met anyone i'd rather
look at than you. turn around! i want to kiss you!
please, mommy?

love, j.

  4. at first, Bethany, I was marveling at the amazing writing skilz. but then… Then… What I call "the mama touch" – stuff that only loving mamas know, and I got a broad, heart smile. Thank you Bethany, and God bless you and each and every one of yours.
