A Date with my (little) Man...

-
Tonight I went out on a date with the most handsome guy in the world.

No it wasn't my hubby.

And no I'm not cheating....

Tonight I took my son on his long awaited 'special' day with mom.

Zee has been waiting a loooong time to have a special night with me but because of all the busy-ness of the last 4-6 months, he's had to wait. But tonight I surprised him with a trip to the movies.

When I told him that we were going for our special date his whole face lit up. I hope to never forget the pure joy I saw in his eyes. Absolute bliss.

As we sat in the theatre watching UP and wearing our 3-D glasses, I wanted to just freeze the moment and sit with him forever and just look at his little face that was beaming with joy.

I know that moments like these are few and far between amidst the daily turmoil of life, but I'm so grateful that I had this chance to just stare at that little face while it's still little, still innocent and still in love with it's mommy.

One day that face will be bigger and more worldly and those special smiles will be reserved for his little boy or girl. I hope he gets a chance to just stare into his little one's face and see the heaven that is there.

Thank you Lord for my sweet babes...all of them; Zee, Kiki and Mo....my little angels on earth and my own little piece of heaven.

The movie was called UP and I feel like tonight I've been lifted UP. I'm not sure who benefited more from this little date...Zee or me.

So, do you go back and read comments to older posts, or should I have posted this comment in your most recent post?

Anyways....what a wonderful time you had with Zee, your little man. And how special to spend time with our children, one to one. They love this, and so do we! But life gets so busy! I need to do this with my boy too...while they will still be seen with us. At what age does that stop? Hopefully not for many years to come.

Children are such a blessing, and I am always encouraged by reading your posts, and hearing about the wonderful family times you are having.

Are you upset when you don't have many comments? Ha, ha!!

And what a wonderful time you had at Lynn Canyon. I haven't been there for so many years. It really sounds like it has changed alot. I remember hiking there and playing in the river, and I even think there was a store where we bought those really big freezies to enjoy. Do people still jump into the water from the really high rocks? Scary! Maybe Lynn Canyon will be a family outing for this summer - but I don't think my stomach could handle the Suspension Bridge - yikes!

Waiting for more of your posts....hope you are enjoying each day! Take care!

Scents and Scents-ability

Before I became a Mommy I was a working girl. And when I was a working girl, I was a GOOD smelling working girl. I had my favorites--Tresor, Poison, Giorgio, Ysatis, Tuscany per Donna, Eternity by Calvin Klein, Perry Ellis and Alfred Sung. I had so many perfumes--and I loved them all! Then I became a Mommy and I did away with all my perfumed-ness. Why? I guess I didn't want my baby to have to breathe all that while s/he was trying to nurse. Perfumed flavored milk? Yucky! And...I never went out so why did I need to smell pretty? Wasn't smelling like breast milk, puke and baby poop enough of a sensory overload? Now I'm two things: Mommy and Working Girl. But I'm not a breastfeeding Mommy so you know what that means... BRING ON THE PERFUME!! The other day I went to the store and I was bowled over by the choices! Givenchy has a million scents now, JLo has like three kinds, and then there's that Ed Hardy guy with the fabulous name-- Christian Audidgi

The earth stood still today. No, it wasn't because the planets were aligned. No, it wasn't because yesterday's date was 10/10/10 (which happens only once every 1000 years) No, it wasn't because the month of October has 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays and 5 Sundays, in it which, according to Facebook (and we know how reliable that is),only happens once every 823 years. No, it was more phenomenal then all of that. It was because I ironed. Sheets. Yes, I actually ironed sheets. Now, you need to understand that I only pick up my iron to move it from one location to another. Typically if something needs ironing one of three things happens: 1. it stays wrinkled 2. it hangs in my closet until gravity pulls the wrinkles out over time 3. I go and buy a new item of clothing. I just don't iron! So why did I do it today, you may ask? It was my front load washer and dryer's fault. It made Kiki's new bedding so wrinkly that I just could not stand to let

Well if this doesn't completely rock your socks then I don't know what will: Taylor Lautner AND Tom Cruise staring in a movie.. together l  And it's about airplanes!   It's TOP GUN all over again people!  I'm just too excited for words. Now, yes, I admit, Tom did crash and burn in my books after the couch incident on Oprah; and after marrying Katie whats-her-name, but all in all, I still like him.  As long as he doesn't open his mouth except to speak his lines in a movie. And Taylor Lautner.  I know, right?  What a beauty!  I don't have a crush or anything on him (puhlease, I could be his MOTHER!) but my eyes do appreciate the view when he's on the screen.  Yes, my eyes, and ONLY my eyes.  Now, as far as crushes go, you need to talk to my daughter.   Taylor adorns practically every inch of her bedroom walls. So, depending on the rating of this movie, I think daughter and mother will go together and both of us will drool.... Age appropriately, o
