The cutest thing happened today and I must tell you about it.
Liam intently observed Caleb presenting his homemade Mother's Day gifts to me. I opened them and exclaimed over thier uniqueness and beauty, and Caleb got a huge hug and kiss afterwards. The whole time, I was aware of Liam hovering quietly. Once the gift opening was done, Liam disappeared around the corner for a while.
Soon, he reappeared, a joyful look on his face. He came over to where I was sitting and presented me with a tin box, and saying, "there you go!" He looked positively overjoyed. I took the little box, and saw that he had placed some things inside carefully...a ball, a small woden box, and a piece of a game. He took each out and presented them to me, "look!", holding it up proudly and then handing it to me.
He had created a gift for me.
I couldn't do anything but say thank you, hug him, and try not to cry.
This little gift, so carefully recycled from bits of toys that he loves, and put together to make something for me, might just be the best thing anyone's ever given to me on Mother's Day.
Hope you have a happy one, too.
