It was touching to me not only because of the subject of the post, but because the quote the blogger included is something I've recently explained to Emma. You see, I always call both my children, "my babies." And I always will. Emma, being such the big girl, would challenge me every time I called her a "baby." So a couple of weeks ago, I sat down and explained that no matter how old she and Drew get, they'll always be my babies. Even when she's a mommy herself. She'll always be my baby. Even when I'm old and decrepit - and she's feeding me like a baby. She'll always be my baby.
My goal is that by making my children understand this concept - of always being my "babies" - that they'll always know how much I love them and that they'll always be welcomed, loved, and accepted in my home for as long as I am living on this earth.
