One foot in the sugar bowl and one foot in a mud puddle…

May 4, 2010 20 Comments

So yesterday I was posting about what a funny little bruiser of a boy Grant is.

However, he came home from school and asked me if I would like to hear a Mother’s Day song he is learning at school. Well of course I do!

Who loves me every morning?
Who loves me every night?
Who could be so in love with me?
My mom, the light of my life…
He sang it to me in this warbling, sweet little falsetto voice. He sang it with feeling. With big blue eyes and with expression… and then burst into tears.
He was sobbing. I had to rock him and hug him for a good 5 minutes. He reduced himself to tears “of love.”

See? He’s not ALL snips and snails and puppy dog tails…

Filed Under: Exchange of the Day, Grant

    What a lucky Mom you are!
