How do I love you?
There’s something about watching him sleep. While he sleeps he’s not a busy little kid. When he sleeps he’s my baby all over again complete with fat cheeks. He knows when I’m watching because he always reaches for me. His mom. *sigh*
In spite of my physical pain today was a really great day. My cousin came and took care of me so I was able to take my meds during the day. My back was still spasming but not moving around a lot helped. Right now I’m still and my back is involuntarily twitching. It hurts but I’m hoping heat will help somehow.
Tonight I read Ezra “How Do I Love You” the bilingual copy. He picked the book out and I just went with the flow. I think sometimes he just needs to know that I love him in spite of naughty behavior. While I was reading, I looked him in the eye each time I said “I love you// Te Amo”. He just smiled his sleepy grin, the one he does right before he asks me to stay an extra ten minutes. He’s really the most amazing child.
I’m still pooped and hurting so maybe my pain meds will kick in quickly so I can sleep through the spasms.
