Awww...

When discussing what the boys wanted to be for trick-or-treating, Patrick looked at me and said sincerely, "I want to be you, Mommy." My heart completely melted as he clarified that it was indeed me (not just any Mommy) that he wanted to be - he wants to wear glasses like mine (I usually wear contacts but wasn't at that moment), carry a cup of water like me, and wear my shirt. I nearly cried because it was just so sweet and he has maintained for over 24 hours that he wants to be me. He also suggested that Calvin could be Titus. :) Calvin did not agree to that and said he would like to be a sheep. :) We are looking forward to hopefully spending that evening with some of our cousins!

What sweet little boys you have. They want to be like you. They think you are an excellent role model and I agree.
I know you are a good Mommy, and they love you.

Love you,
Grandma Judd

What a neat thing for him to say. That is worth every hard moment.
