The Greatest Feeling in the World

My older two children went to my in-laws yesterday morning, so for the remainder of the day, it was just Mathias and I.

We spent the entire day just playing together. He's learning to walk, but only has the confidence to take one or two steps before taking a nose dive into the floor. He loves it, though, and praise is enough to make him do it again and again.

After his nap, I went up to get him from his crib, and for the next 15 minutes, we sat on the couch and cuddled! I can't explain the feeling I get when my active one year old wants to put his day on hold to just rest his head on mommy's shoulder! I think I would describe it as the greatest feeling in the world. I am so grateful that for the past year I have been able to spend every day with my children.
