How long has it really been?

Wow! I've stayed away from here for a very long time. All is busy here at the ol' homestead. Kids keeping me busy. One day while coming back from Joshua's therapy, I looked over at Josh who was napping and I thought...how long has it been since I really hugged him? I mean *really* hugged him. Sure we hug all the time...they are going off to bed in a rush, I'm trying to get Peyton down, etc. Am I really 'that' busy as a mom? I answered, NO! So that evening when they came to me to say goodnight, I did a bear hug. I'm sure I got, "what in the world is she doing...she's not letting me go!!" :D So, I got my hug in. I'm trying to be more 'real' in the hugging department. My kids are important and they need to know that mom loves them very much. They need to *feel* that from mom. When's the last time you REALLY hugged your kid? I hope everyday.
