Love is...

1) Running through Walgreen's, shoving people out of the way, so that a 4 year old can throw up in the bathroom and not in the middle of the toy aisle.

2) Retrieving the correct fork at the request (nay, demand!) of the same child so that he may eat his waffles the way God intended.

3) Jumping out of the shower at the sound of a bloodcurling scream coming from the living room where said child is watching a movie, only to discover that the blanket has dislodged itself and needs to be placed back on top of his prone body laying 30 inches away.

4) Running upstairs at the sound of "MAMA!" so that the special cup may be picked up and handed it to a deeply thirsty sick child who seems to have lost all ability to reach his nightstand.

5) Kissing the feverish brow of a sweet little boy as his body shakes and then says that he doesn't feel sick and he really needs to "partricipate" in soccer practice.

6) The precious sound of Sir Toots husky voice as he tells me that he "weally wuvs me a wot."

oh Pumpkin, Mama loves you, too.
