Today I'm grateful for...

...a little buddy who patiently puts up with an inexperienced, incompetent mother. And I'm grateful for the things he's teaching me about life--that I need to slow down, find joy in the little things, and remember that in the end the only thing that really matters is love. Bubba (don't you think that name fits?) is only 5 months, but I'm convinced his spirit is eons older than mine. You probably think I'm crazy, but I see wisdom far beyond my own in those penetrating little eyes. And somehow he already knows how to love and comfort me when I desperately need it. So thank you little guy, you truly are my (big) little angel.
