Mommy Moments


This blog is for my mother-in-law. She was at our house yesterday and witnessed this "mommy moment". In fact, I probably would not have realized how "special" it was had she not have been there and pointed it out (she was crying!!!). So here it goes...
I returned home from a quick grocery run to a screaming Jenna. She doesn't cry often, at least not like that so I immediately ran over and snatched her from Brian. He explained that she had been screaming for a while and he had tried everything but nothing was calming her down. Well, within 10 seconds of me getting her, she put her head on my shoulder and was ASLEEP. Just like that. She just wanted her mommy : )
Poor Brian. He was really stressed out from her screaming. And even though I calmed her immediately, she was fussy off and on all evening. I am hoping I ate something that upset her tummy and not that this is the beginning of a colicky phase.
So thanks Jan for opening my eyes to this special moment. I'm sure these mommy moments happen all the time without even being recognized. I love being a mommy!
