Write it down so I don't forget

A few days ago around nap time Jackson looked at me and said "mommy, I doe wes now, I tired". Picked up his Bob (his blankie), walked to his room and laid down on his bed. I turned the light off and he fell straight to sleep. Course it hasn't happened again, BUT it was nice to not have to fight him into that bed for once.

The other morning he came out of his room with a smile on his face and said to me "mommy, Jackson is happy".....this NEVER happens because he's not a morning person at all. I would like to think of it as a nice little gift that God gave me that morning cause I was feeling a little achey.

And just a few moments ago, I was putting laundry away in his bedroom and he came in from the backyard looking for me saying "mom!? mom?" I yelled that I was back in his bed room so he came walking in that direction with the most precious gift in his hand, big smile on his face and said to me "mommy, I brought you a fower. See it's white" Then he proceeded to smell it and told me "mmm, mell pwetty mommy". No it wasn't a flower, instead it was a big puffy white dandelion. I don't know if Travis taught him to pick flowers and bring them to mommy, nonetheless, it melted my heart. Thank God for that little gift too!
