{Only for a while}

This precious little person joined our family when we were still very busy dealing with the special needs of an almost 4 year old and an oh so strong willed 22 month old. He had to learn patience right away. And he did. He didn't get alot of one on one time. Really - he didn't get any. He was loved, and cuddled, and smooched, and adored - But often in a rush and on the go. He came to us in a very, very busy stage of life. So these moments... These "just mommy and Noe" moments on Tuesday mornings while the "big boys" are in school are so sweet. No one knows how long it will be {just the two of us}. But while it lasts, we enjoy.

Thanks for sharing your time (and muffins) with me this morning. It was so good to see you. Enjoy your sweet boy!

You're SO right! I toyed with the idea of home-schooling. But then I felt that there was a natural symmetry as each child spent a bit more time away from home each day, the younger one got a bit more attention.
I know it can be managed in lots of different ways, but like you, I'm treasuring the time I have with my two on their own before number three arrives!

Gosh, I love that. I did that with my little guy the other day. Sometimes it is so nice and important to have that one on one time.
Hugs!

Oh I so totally understand. I enjoy my one on one time with my baby girl while the other kids are in school.

Oh, this little man certainly got your big beautiful eyes, didn't he? Are his a bit more blue than yours? Absolutely striking - on both of you!
