Mom

Well, he finally said it. I thought that there would be much more fanfare surrounding this accomplishment. Nope. However....he only says "Mama" or "Mom" when he is upset or when I am stopping him from doing something that he really wants to do. Tonight he was upset about brushing his teeth. He very clearly said "Mom" 3 times. I asked him if he could call me "Mommy" & he did.

Zach had been calling me "Cute" for the last month. It was so sweet having my son think that my name was "Cute". Except when he did it at 5:45 in the morning. That wasn't so "cute".

Here are some pics that I promised a while ago (sorry).

Mother's Day

Ahhh...Mother's Day. Mother's Day as a single mom is definitely not how I pictured Mother's Days would be. However, as I watched Zach dancing around the living room to some song this morning, I realized that Mother's Day was much better than I had ever dreamed.

My son is happy, relatively healthy & only has a few issues to deal with related to his prematurity. His smile lights up a room. I love how he looks at people as if they are the best thing to happen to his day. I am so excited to see how his personality has developed in the next year.

I got some great pics today, but....I am too lazy to download them right now. I'll do it on Wed. (I promise).
