The Joy Is In The Little Things

It is little things like this that make up for the fact that, as a mom, I get no financial rewards...no sick time...no paid time off... 

It is little things like this that warm up my heart on days like today, when I am still in bed.

It is little things like this make all the frustrations and the tears somehow...worth it.



Dear Mom,
I hope you get well soon, I really like it when you are not sick, because you can be really happy, and not feeling sad. I hope you can get well tomorow, so I can see your wounderfull smile, and your cheerfull face! I wouldent feel good if I never see you smile again.  I hope you can sleep well tonight! Just to remind you, you are the best mom in the whole wold, and I love you so much.
love, Joseph

I highly doubt they know how much these little things mean to a mommy heart...but it is little things like this that make me think, for even just a moment, I have done something right.

Looking up as always...

Oh my goodness, that is so sweet. What a blessing!!! You are well loved, Bina!!

I'm praying for the healthy angel to sprinkle good health all over you and your family, so they don't catch what you're fighting.

Bina said...

Thank you all for your kind words...

First of all, I think my son is the best alive...but I am sure that most of you would try to argue that point, so I will concede that he is the best son alive for ME. :)

Second, I am feeling ever so much better tonight...as I should after having three days straight laying in bed, or so my hubby says. ha ha

Much love to you all tonight!
Bina

How precious. You're right--it's the little things that keep us going...especially on those days when we're sick or want to pull our hair out for a hundred different reasons. I hope you feel better soon.
