Mom, I really love this alone time with you.

Spoken as we crossed the slippery parking lot of our Bloomingdale's this morning. I mean, I just about melted. Really.

Dropped Lily off this morning for her last little school party, and big brother and I did some errands. He was my date to the bank, post office, Bloomingdale's, and some last minute Christmas hunting. He was adorable. Held my hand, offered to hold my purse while I tried on shoes, and was hugging on me the whole morning. My sweet boy, who as my girlfriend Erika puts it, has a full time job. He goes to school 5 days a week for 5 full days. So, my time with him usually is from 6:45am-7:45am and then from 3pm-6:45pm everyday. Not much time with my guy who is constantly growing and developing his amazing personality. I love our little moments alone.
