Take My Heart With You

It is amazing how the smallest comment can carry you all through your day. How one little sentence can make any day brighter. J is going to his grandparents' house this week for Spring Break. I was telling him goodbye this morning with all that entails (be good, I love you, mind your Papa and GranMa, etc.). He grabbed me around the neck for a tight hug, gave me a big kiss, and said, "I'm gonna miss you, Mommy." as he nuzzled into my neck. That's all I needed to carry me through the week. I hope he always knows that when he is away from me, he carries my heart with him.
