Little Piece of Heaven

Today I am experiencing a little piece of heaven. Nana, my Mom, came yesterday afternoon to whisk the girls away for the weekend. Andy left last night for a men's retreat. I love my hubby dearly, but let's be honest. Having the luxury of staying in my mumu all day without fear of totally disgusting him is bliss. Not to mention having the bed to myself last night! In my current stage (huge with child), comfort and bed have given up on being friends. But sleeping smack dab in the middle of the bed, surrounded by ALL the pillows eagerly waiting to prop this here and that there was about as close to being comfortable that I can get these days.

So it's just me and my A. And we've been having lots of fun, because our idea of fun is the same. Eat, sleep, snuggle, eat, sleep, snuggle. Today, more than ever before, I am thanking God for my little boy who loves to sleep A LOT. I've been taking advantage of it, and it's been wonderful.

A BIG, HUGE, ENORMOUS thanks goes out to Nana for making this happen. She's currently enduring chaos with my little girls (pray for her) simply so I can get some much needed rest.

Thanks Mom. I love you dearly and appreciate all you do for me. I'm 29 and you're still guiding and teaching me how to be a great Mom to my own kiddos. Thank you.
