Kaden came and told me that he is going to miss me when he goes on the father sons camp out this weekend. He said that he will be thinking of his sisters and his family.
He said that it will give us some girl time, it will be good for us because he knows that he is the hardest one to take care of after all. Yes, he says after all. He says it's because he tries to sneek food to bed with him.
But he wants me to know that he will be missing me.
That makes a mother smile.
Of course I laugh and hug him and kiss him and tell him how much I will miss him because he is my favorite boy, ever.
And that makes him smile.
He is supposed to be sleeping but instead he builds a fort. He wants me to come look at it because it is missing just one thing, he says. His family, it needs his family in it.
I tuck him in, again, and sing him a song. Always the same one. And he falls asleep with a smile on his face.
Oh how I love him. I want him to be my little boy forever.
