{Thankful For My Dude}

I really need some shut-eye.
But first I have to quickly record a few things about my Reed Mo because I'm afraid if I don't do it now, with the hustle and bustle of life, these memories may be lost and just fade away.  These are the little moments I never want to forget...

Putting Reed to bed tonight he said, "Mum, I love you with all my heart.  You're funny, cheerful, not jealous and not a cyclone killer"

He's continuously telling me I'm the best Mum in the world.
  I know it's not true but I have to admit there's a part of me that thinks, I must be all right to have a son as polite and thoughtful as he is.  For instance when we got home from school today, before I could ask him, he asked me how my day was.  Then asked how his baby brother is doing. Then he told me how great I am.

In every school lunch I pack for the kids I also include a special note.  I asked Reed if he liked the note I packed for him today.  "I nearly cried happy tears mum.  I loved it"
 (a little side note, I know they love the notes not only because they tell me but they never throw them away. I always find them tucked away in their backpacks.  It's worth the extra effort and I suggest it to every mother.)

The best days are when you don't need anything extreme or special to happen to make it great.

You just appreciate and enjoy what is and that's perfect enough.

Today was one of those days...

Thank you Reed for making it perfect.
