{It's the Little Things // I never want to forget}
Wednesday, July 22, 2015
Just a few of the little things about Mason right now that I do not want to ever forget. Ever.
Like the way his freckles brush over his cheek, then across his nose and to the other cheek. And how summertime really brings out those freckles. He used to call them sprinkles and I loved that. But now that he's a big ol' five year old he has started calling them freckles. Sigh. And those eyelashes...and those sweet little lips. And we can't forget his signature cow-lick. Everyone points out, loves and remembers him by his cow-lick. A couple of weekends ago we were camping and Mason got a sunburn, but not where his cow-lick hair hung down. It was the wildest & funniest thing.
I also want to remember how he always has to be near me. All day every day. That's okay by me...I can't get enough of him either. Or how he will call out "Mama, Mama" like something is wrong or he needs me quickly only to tell me "I love You!" He's got a sweet soul and tells me and his Daddy he loves us {along with a plethora of other sweet things} a million times a day. He completely melts me daily.
Another thing I love is how he says, "Mama, I gotta tell you something" every single time before he says anything else. When his Daddy was his age he did something similar. Nate would say, "Let's talk about...{insert anything and everything}." I just love this.
Oh how I love this child. Thank you Jesus. Thank you for choosing me to be his Mama and for trusting me with one of yours.

ReplyDeleteThese are the sweetest little things. I miss that age with my son so much (he's 12 now). Your little guy is adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is the sweetest post! One of my daughters called freckles "sprinkles" too...melt my heart! We call them angel kisses in our house;-) Thanks for sharing your heart and gratefulness as a mother!
ReplyDeleteHis 'sprinkling' of freckles is precious! It is a sad day when they outgrow a special word or phrase in favor of the correct one. Why must it happen?!
ReplyDeleteLove that up close pic and those freckles are way too cute! He sounds like a momma's boy for sure!

ReplyDeleteOh those eye lashes. I am green with envy. Little boys always get the best lashes.
ReplyDeleteThat's so sweet. My sweet boy melts my heart like this every day.
ReplyDeleteAll the feels with this post!
ReplyDeleteThose freckles, those eye lashes, the sweet way he calls for you. What an amazing little man you have right there.
Oh my goodness. The sweetness! My Mason's eye lashes are some of my favorite things too! I swear I just love ever bit of his body. I look a picture of him with his hands in his pockets of his shorts the other day because I just thought it was so cute!
ReplyDeleteThose freckles...sigh.
ReplyDeleteSuch sweet memories... It's hard not to wrap them up and keep them close. Never forget!
ReplyDeleteI love this post! That is one sweet boy you've got there. You paint a great picture of Mason at this age. It makes me want to do something similar for Ez. So many little things that change so fast that I want to remember forever.
