From the mouth of babes

I know I haven't posted anything in a long time. I've just not had the motivation to do it. After it's been so long, it starts to feel a bit overwhelming- like I need to post about everything that's happened since I've last posted and, while we don't lead the most exciting lives, over months, things add up. And then it feels like too much to cover. But something happened today and laying in bed today, reliving the moment with Alex, I just had to write it down. I want to be able to remember this and savor the sweetness weeks, months, years from now.
Kellen is our sweet, sensitive little guy. He is always running up and giving us random, but passionate, heart-felt embraces and telling us he loves us SO very much. Today he was sitting at the dining room table, playing legos with Brady and I was in the kitchen, getting dinner ready. I had a song in my head and burst into song, randomly singing the chorus. I heard Kellen say something about my singing, but I couldn't make it out. (I honestly thought he said something about please stop singing and I thought it was funny.) So, I stuck my head into the dining room and asked what he had said and he told me "I said thank you for singing that Mom. I love you.". Talk about filling my heart to bursting! Warm fuzzies- I tell you, this little guy is full of 'em.
