My favorite part of the day: One of my 4 year old boys started the habit of giving me a hug every morning. And it's usually an all out sprint to me when he sees me for the first time that day. Many of my other kids have caught on and I'm often mobbed with hugs in the mornings. Kids have the power to make you feel really good about yourself and what you're doing. They make me want to pull my hair out some days, but it's all washed away when they wrap those little arms around me.
On an unrelated note - a few days ago I was sitting at a table coloring with a few of my kids when I heard the girl beside me humming a familiar tune. And deep down I was very proud of her music selection. I listened for a few minutes before joining in singing "So rock me Momma like a wagon wheel..." She turned and looked at me with a giant grin on her face. It's a special bond that country music lovers share.
