Rather than dazzling you with the sweetness that is a picture of my boys, I'm going to instead create a mental picture for you...
It's late evening. In a few minutes it will be time for the boys to go get in bed. He's wearing his green and blue dinosaur pajamas and sitting in his red and blue Mickey Mouse chair. I'm wrapped in a blanket and reclining on the couch, my head only inches from his. The iPad is on his lap, tuned to his favorite song from Monsters, Inc.
We're laughing and smiling at each other while we sing together at the top of our lungs.
I Don`t have to say it (Aw say it anyway)
Cause we both know it's true
I wouldn`t have nothin if I didn`t have
I wouldn`t have nothin if I didn`t have
I wouldn`t have nothin if I didn`t have
Wouldn`t have nothin if I didn`t have
Youuuuu!
One more time! Big one! (His favorite part to sing)Don`t have to say it
Where`d everybody come from?
Oh we both know its true
Let`s take it home big guy
I wouldn`t have nothin if I didn`t have
I wouldn`t have nothin if I didn`t have
I wouldn`t have nothin if I didn`t have
You, you, you!
A-E-I-O that means you (This part I sing alone to him)Ya!
Cause we both know it's true
I wouldn`t have nothin if I didn`t have
I wouldn`t have nothin if I didn`t have
I wouldn`t have nothin if I didn`t have
Wouldn`t have nothin if I didn`t have
Youuuuu!

Then he leans over, kisses me, and says, "I love you mommy."
"I love you too, Shawn." I tell him back. He smiles again and gives me a sweet hug.
And you know what? I think that says it all right there. :)
