Loyalty & Big D, Dirt & Little D

last night... Big D was worried about her friends... she felt they needed her and she was very fearful of standing up and performing in front of a large crowd which she would have to do to be there for them...

and she did it...

and I felt massive waves...

today... Little D came home... looking like a ragamuffin... her hair, her hat, her clothes, her hands... she was dirty all over with sand, dirt and paint... and her eye glowed with happiness... she had a wonderful day... you could tell... it was written all over her...

and I felt massive waves

tonight, my neice and I went to my cousin's play (which was wonderful) and then to a movie... the movie itself was cute at best... but the time with her was special... she and I do not have much time together just the two of us anymore... we connected and really got to talk...

and I felt waves there too...

It has been a pretty wavy 24 hours! :)

mother's day

• listening to my kids whisper as they tried to sneak down the stairs to get me breakfast gave me waves
• them coming up with their lovely gifts they made me gave me waves.
• reading what they had on the cards / posters they made not only gave me waves but made me begin to cry from the overwhelming waves
• then later on... when I was drifting in and out of a blissful day of rest... and snoozing... unheard of the rest of the year... my youngest materialized beside me and said "I love you Mumma" with such pure unconditional love... was amazing
• then she showed up again later and I roused myself enough to see her put a painting on top of the blanket.

ahhhhhhhh.... I felt waves for my babies all day and I do believe I felt waves back from them....

Happy Mother's Day all

last week I felt many waves

there were two specials days / evenings last week that my hubby made me just melt...

wishing there are some this week tooo....

fingers crossed

but you know you can't have waves everyday can you?
