A Year of Gratitude: Day Four

Today I am grateful for the "I love yous" I get from the kiddos.  Particularly with Baylor being on the spectrum, I know how lucky I am that he is at all affectionate.  And anyone who is close with him can tell you that he is often the epitome of affection; he's quick with a hug and an I-love-you and often just likes to be close to those he loves.  Mollie, bless her heart, has followed suit and is just as affectionate as her dear brother.  I know it won't last forever, all this open affection and love towards their mom, so I'm soaking it in now and storing it up so I'll remember later, when they're older, just how much they love me.  I hope they'll always know just how much I love them, too.
