Toy Story...

I will admit that I sobbed at the end of Toy Story 3. Do you have a little boy? Have you seen this movie? You will sob, too.

Last night, Matt read Tommy the book, "Toy Story 3" and I came into Tommy's room to give him a "finale kiss and hug." He told me he was so happy to read Toy Story 3 and then this happened...

Me: "Tommy? I don't even want you to grow up like Andy."

Tommy: "WHY?"

Me: "Because I love you as my little boy and I just don't want you to ever grow up and move away."

Tommy (while hugging me): "But I have to, Mom! That's how I am made! I have to grow!"

Ugh. This parenting thing. It kicks you in the gut every once in a while. Hug tighter! Be more present! Appreciate! What else can you do....

Name:

I'm a 39 year old stay-at-home mom. I have a 9 year old daughter and a 7 year old son. I have lived in the big city and in the mountains, but am happy to be back in the Midwest, raising the fam. I enjoy laughing, wine, bad karaoke, US Weekly, running, cemetaries, cheese sticks and short hair-dos. In my previous life, I was class-clown and a wanna-be comedian. In my professional life, I'm a journalism major with 10 years of marketing and PR experience. I dream of being a cast member on Saturday Night Live and working at Disney World as Snow White.
