And THAT is why I do this.

We were in the car, going to pick up my oldest son from school.  I hear the sweet voice of my toddler saying “Mommy?” from the back seat.

Me: “Yes, baby?”

Him: “Ah wub woo.”  (For those not familiar with toddler speak, that’s I love you!)

Me: I love you, too.

Him: Appa buhday! (Happy Birthday!)

It’s about 10 days late, but it’s still pretty sweet.  It makes all the yuckiness (including that *very* nasty diaper I just changed and the fight that I’m going to have to break up momentarily) worth it.  It reminds me that I must be doing something right, even if it feels like I’m not!
