The other night, while B was working late, Goober and I were hanging out in the kitchen trying to decide what to have for dinner. Meanwhile, I was freezing. I just couldn't get warm. Not even in sweatpants, sweatshirt & t-shirt. I had jacked up the thermostat, put more layers but nothing would work to keep me warm.
The next thing I know, Goober is trying to throw her blanket onto me. When I asked why, she simply said "Because your cold. Now wrap up so you can be warm & toasty." Pretty sure I melted into a big, gooey puddle of Mommy right at that moment.
For those who don't know, Goober's blanky is sacred. No one can use it, she can't leave the house without it and it's a catastrophe when it has to leave her sight so that Mommy can wash it. Her sharing the oh so precious blanky with me was the sweetest thing she could do. So of course, I took advantage of the moment. Crouching down, wrapping us both in the much loved blanky together, Goober and I snuggled & giggled for several minutes.
Those are the kind of moments I want to remember for the rest of my life.
