20 little things

I worry a lot about how I am raising my kids, which is ok, because it is pretty much the most important thing I got going on in my life. Besides corn nuts and Diet Coke naturally.  

Anyway, here are 20 unique and not so unique little and big things that I adore about my two boys: Hudson and Tasman.

1.    I love that Hud was assigned the tuba and seems to enjoy it.  
2.    I love that Tasman lost both his two front teeth at the same time (all he wants for Christmas?)
3.    I love Tasman’s belly.
4.    I love Hudson’s long, couch filling body.
5.    I love Tasman’s interpretive dance moves.
6.    I love when both of them lie on me and we watch the Food Network.
7.    I love that Hud has mastered chop sticks
8.    I love that Tasman spells everything.
9.    I love that both of them have beat me at 21 (well, kind of)
10.    I love that Hudson claims to remember some of his time away with us in New Zealand.
11.    I love that both of them are honest.  
12.    I love that both of them are not sneaky.
13.    I love that Tasman says “seriously” and “as a matter of fact, yes…”
14.    I love that Hud knows all the words to all the pop songs (all the words, not all the meanings)
15.    I love that Tasman wants his mother to do stories every night (envy a little, love a lot)
16.    I love that Hud exults about loving a chapter (a four page chapter, but I will take it)
17.    I love that both know I am flawed and will admit it.
18.    I love listening to Tasman play Lego.
19.    I love Hudson’s belly laugh.
20.    I love that they love each other.

Sappy?  Sure.  But why not.  These are the little things that keep all the other things at bay.
