A Little Reminder: They Need Me

My boys both have the flu now. I certainly did not wish this on them, but since they got it, it's serving a purpose. I'm looking for the silver lining to the clouds, and I am reminded that my boys need me after all. It's nice to feel needed once in a while. They're getting so big that they're more self-sufficient lately. I miss their little boy hugs and snuggles. C, especially, was always my snuggle-bug, and he's feeling too big to hug his mother more than once every few days! Now I've got 2 boys taking turns with their head on my lap. I'm soaking up all the hugs and snuggles I can, while it lasts! And I'm very thankful that if only one person can help soothe their misery, even in a small way, that it's me. It's great to be a mom.
