Big Big Blue Whale

Tonight Lindsay and David came over like they usually do on Sunday evenings but tonight it was a little different. The realization that I am leaving in just a few short days has finally started to set in. I started the night off holding little Colby as I usually do and oh my goodness is he a sweetheart! Connor has become very independent and likes to watch cartoons in the den by himself. I went in to check on him and it just happened to be a commercial so I thought it would be the perfect time to let him know that I would be leaving soon and that I will miss him as much as a Big Big Blue Whale(Our inside joke)! I can't even explain the emotions that came, the flood gates opened! I told him that I was going to be leaving for a long time and that even though I wouldn't see him I would always be thinking about him. He said, "Let's take the batteries out of the plane tomorrow so you can stay with me"! It made me laugh so hard he is adorable. He told me not to cry and that he loved me as much as a Big Big Blue Whale too. He then proceeded to reassure me that I shouldn't worry because he would forget me(he means to say I won't but doesn't quiet understand how to say it)that too made me laugh! Tonight made me realize how undeniably grateful and blessed I am to have such a tight nit relationship with all of my family members. It opened my eye's to how lucky I am to see these precious little boys 7 days a week! They truly are my everyday sunshine in this rainy state! My heart has grown twice in size since they have been introduced into this world and more importantly my life! I love them all as much as a Big Big Blue Whale!
