Words that melt a mommies heart!

Asher has grown into a wonderful little man!  He is 2 years 8 months now and is growing up so very fast.  His heart is so big and his spirit is so sweet!  What a blessing from God he is!

I am not saying that there aren't days with challenges.  He is a toddler after all... but he is precious to us in a way we could have never imagined!   

Today Asher said something that melted my heart and made me so proud to be his mom.  

For no reason out of no where he came up to me, gave me a hug and said "I love you mommie you're my best friend!"  What a sweet thing for him to say!   

I know that it is not something I may ever hear again so I am going to treasure it forever!   As he grows I know that as with all parents my job is to be his mom... not necessarily his "Best Friend" 

Boundaries have to be set at different time in life and rule will have to be made... but for today being the best friend of my toddler is an amazing thing!  

I promise I will never forget this day when he is a teen trying to test the boundaries, when he thinks he knows all and when he thinks that parents are silly people without wisdom.  I know that day will come... it comes for all.  

Asher, I want you to always know that you are my treasure!  You are my precious gift from God!  You are a blessing and you bring me great joy!  May your joy and love continue to grow as you do and may you know the blessings in your life that God has brought to mine!  

I love you Buddy!  Thank you for being my best friend!
