One Word

What a difference the addition of one word makes. Medium has always responded to I love you with a simple I love you. Tonight I said I love you and he responded, "I love you Mom-mom." (Medium has called me Mom-mom for as long as he could talk.) It was always glorious to hear him say I love you back, but the addition of Mom-mom on the end warms the farthest corners of my Mommy heart. I've always wanted to be a Mommy and I love (nearly) every minute of it. Hearing my three year old tell me he loves me makes up for the moments that are less than glamorous (or enjoyable).
