"Mommy, I have to ask you a question."

Cade is in such a cute stage right now. When he gets up in the middle of the night and doesn't want to go back to his bed, he says, "Mommy, can I snuggle with you." Who can argue with that.

Today I got him 2 knitted finger puppets at the Kid n Ewe and Llama's too (a yarn and fiber show). He is already planning a finger puppet show and says I will be invited.

Being a mommy is so much fun. He is in a total adventure stage right now. He likes to be a daredevil which of course scares mommy to death. He is also becoming very independent and wants to do EVERYTHING himself. It is hard to believe that just 5 years ago, I was pregnant not really understanding this awesome journey I would now be so excited with. Cade is a goof ball, he is inquisitive, he is excited about everything. All this makes being a mommy that much better.

All of these people out there in Facebook land and in general are spending alot of time talking about things they are thankful for for the whole month of November. I am most thankful that I am able to be a mommy. I am thankful that I have been blessed with a supportive husband that loves his son and would move mountains for him. I love that I have a cuddly little boy who just amazes me everyday with every little thing he does.

It's the little things in life sometimes that make you realize how blessed and thankful I am. I don't ever take for granted being a mommy but happy reminders of how awesome it is are a great thing.

"Mommy, can I ask you a question."
"Mommy, I love you"
"Mommy, Can we snuggle."
"I missed you, Mommy"
"I'm gonna sing you the song in my head"
"I WUV strawberries"

and oh so many more....
Life is good :)
