I love you :)

Sunday, July 31 was by far was the best vacation day ever at least for me.  The day my little girl told me she loved me. I will never forget it.

We had such a busy beach and boardwalk day and it was getting really late.  So, eventually we started for home. Sam fell asleep in the car holding her new frog that Grandmom bought her. We got her to bed around 9:00 and Sam was simultaneously exhausted and all wound up. I was lying on my mom’s bed with her (which is a whole other story, she refused to sleep in her crib even one night). I was just trying to get her soothed enough to fall asleep so I could sneak out. We were talking quietly and I said, “Sam, Mommy loves you so much. Do you love Mommy?” and in the tiniest, cutest voice, Sam said, “Love you” (which came out more like Lub You). It was so incredibly adorable that I just squished her so close. I wanted to hug her all night. I did get her to say it a few more times but I wonder if she knows what it means. Even if she doesn’t, it totally made my day. My little girl loves me. I know she does, I mean, really, of course I do, but there is something about hearing those words from her own mouth, in her own little voice. Oh, little girl….I am so lucky to have you!

Here is a picture of my sweet pea all sleepy with her new frog.  Sleep tight baby girl!
