My mother has fallen twice in the last month. My son, who just turned 5, recently said, “Mom, I don’t want to get old.” I said, “Why not?” He said, ” cause you get hurt a lot, like Mom-mom” He also said, “I want to get old like Pop-Pop cause you get to plant a garden and make pumpkin pies” My father loves gardening and baking.

“Mommy, you are so soft!” After battling with my weight, I was very happy to lose 65 lbs! I was feeling very slim and proud until one day when my 7 year old was cuddling with me and told me this. I couldn’t help but laugh and hug him as I said’ “Thanks a lot!”

After finding my 3 yr old daughter completely covered in green food dye, I am taking her to the bathtub to try to get it off of her and mistakenly mention that she looks like the grinch that stole Christmas. She starts howling saying,” I don’t want to be the grinch. Get the grinch off me now!” I laughed so hard we were both crying. When she noticed I was crying too she added,”It’s okay mommy I won’t always be green”.
