While I'm in the admitting mood, 'it' happened. The cheesy schmoopy moment that get forwarded in emails and is the constant inspiration for Hallmark cards.
It was a cold and dreary day in Houston. Okay, it was 50F (BRRR) and gray. Robert was strangely unwilling to go to school and quite teary about it. Later, I sat on the couch with Zoe, watching WordWorld for the 653rd time (Hey- it won an EMMY and it's from PBS, that's practically educational, right?)
Then it hit me. They WILL grow UP!! OH NO!!! MY BABIES are growing up! (Shed a tear for me now) It lasted about 23 seconds before Zoe got up and started coloring her belly with markers. But finally, almost 4 years in, I had my gushy mommy moment. So maybe after all, I will make it through this mommy job :)
