Forever

After a week of ups and downs my son wanders into the guestroom where we keep the computer. I was Pinteresting and had headphones on blasting some Celtic Thunder. I turned away from the computer took off my headphones....
With his arms outstretched he reached for me. "Mommy, do you want a hug that lasts forever?" 
I pull him into my lab and we snuggle. "Yes, I need hugs that last forever."
The best moments come when we least expect them.

ER

Almost made it to year 5 of now trips to the ER.
Gavin is a healthy boy. He has never really been severely sick. He has never really gotten hurt. I have never needed to freak out and go to the ER like I have seen other mothers do.
Today was my day. Today I saw my child in pain. Today I freaked out. I had no answers to the situation my child was in.
Gavin fell + feet off some play equipment on a trip to the playground with Mamama. We headed to the ER where we were told he has a contusion of the spine and pelvis region. Nothing broken.
I just have gained maybe my first gray hair.
We arrived.
