Baby Mine, Don't You Cry ...

July 18
Jack continues to melt my heart. He knows just how to tug on my heart strings. We've had a pretty rough time getting back into our daily routine ever since we returned home from our RV Vacation. We've fought with school, breakfast, dinner and bedtime - and a fever all weekend.

Tonight, we compromised and cuddled on the couch for a little while. I was holding him tight when he reached up and held my check and ran his fingers through my hair and started singing,
Baby mine, don't you cry ...
Baby mine, dry your eyes ...



Now, if we all remember the movie Dumbo - we know this clip is not has heart wrenching as the real scene (I'm going to save you from reliving that one). Nevertheless, I joined in with Jack as his voice trailed off and by the time I got to the end of the song I found myself holding my baby even tighter with tears rolling down my face.

Where has my baby gone?

Your baby is growing into a loving little boy of whom you can be very proud. You have just witnessed what it is to be a mother of a very special child who loves you very much.
