Because he is my joy...

This is a post from my 360 page...

OK...I'm home last night, chillin around the house and stuff and my son looks at me and says "...mommy, I love you with my whole heart." Needless to say I became this trembling lipped, teary eyed, emotional bag of mush. After I choked back my emotion I said "What made you say that Poodah (that's what I call him)?" and he went on to tell me the reason that he said it. He said that even when I'm angry with him he always feels that I love him. He also said that I am his best friend. I cannot think of anything more wonderful to hear from your child.
Please believe that the man-child works my nerves at times, but he is beautiful. He has an amazing heart and a loving spirit. He is so bright and talented. God has blessed me with so much, but nothing compares to the gift that is my son...
Because he is my joy.
