What’ll Make Me Nearly Burst Into Tears?
This morning, I finally got Ben to repeat, “Mamamamama.” Everytime he did, I’d clap and hug him. He’d grin and repeat himself.
Later, I let him go a little too long before putting him down for his nap. He started crying the cry that makes me want to cuddle him for the rest of his life so nothing bad can ever happen. In the midst of this cry what came streaming out but, “Mamaaaaa! Mamaaaaa!” It was heart wrenching.
Eric said he didn’t know what he was saying. He may not have. My thought is that he knew saying it earlier made me grab him and hug him right away. He thought it might work again this time. Either way, if I get out of this whole mommyhood thing alive, without my heart being ripped in two, I’ll be really lucky.

I’m not sure that’s possible I’m afraid.
Sweet, sweet Ben! While he doesnt know its your name, he does know it gets him a reaction.
Gah, that would totally make me cry! (((HUGS)))
It’s funny how I can relate and my poor boy isn’t even here yet. I can’t even imagine what a blubbering overprotective wreck I’ll be when I get to where you’re at.
You’re such a wonderful mom, Jess.
He knows, dude. He totally knows.
He knew sweetie. He knew. And he also knew you could make it right.
Awwwwww!! He loves his mamamamama! (and who wouldn’t, you rawk)
