Almost 11..


River:: (walking through the house putting stuff away)
"Mama, I was thinking..." (silence)..

"Mama, um guess what?" (silence) ..

"Hey, Mama..." (silence).

Finally, I say "River, what is it?"

He comes in my room & crawls in my lap to wrap his arms around me

and smiling says,

"Sometimes it just feels really good to say Mama."

One week from today, my baby will turn 11.

How can that be?

Oh my goodness..I love him so.
