Isaiah 4.5 years old, Jonathan 2.75 years old
As my two baby boys slip away, I am comforted by their innocence and sweetness. This past summer Isaiah started paying me compliments. "'Mama, I like your dress," he tells me one evening as I'm taking him out of the car to go eat dinner at a restaurant. Then, Isaiah surprised me as the three of us were patiently waiting to get our Jamba smoothies and theirs came up first, but Isaiah insisted on waiting until mine was ready too before he indulged. Completely melted my heart. When we go to our favorite frozen yogurt shop the tables have a mixture of chair colors at their tables and the boys are always sure to save me the pink one. And now following suit, Jonathan says to me, "Mama, I like your toe nails," after I had just got home from a pedicure. Every girl loves a compliment and some special attention, especially from the boys in her life. I'm one lucky MAMA.
