Top Three Things Jackson Likes About Mommy

Jackson and I snuggled in his bed tonight talking like we do on a lot of nights.  Our conversation turned to him listing the top three things he likes about me.  Here is what he said:

Number 3 (yes, he was clear that he started from the bottom!) -
"You make really good birthday parties."

Number 2
"You always tell me the truth.  When I ask you about something, you tell me the truth."

Number 1
"You love me no matter what I do."

Wow.  I couldn't have anything better said about me -- EVER.  I knew that I had to record this conversation because his words mean so much to me.

Jackson, you are exactly right.  I will always be your truth.  And, I will always love you no matter what - in the good times and the bad.  It doesn't matter what goes on in your life -- I will always love you.  And, I'm so glad that you love your birthday parties.  I love making them special for you, because you are very special to me.  I am a very blessed person because God made me your mom.  I tell you that you are my favorite little boy in the entire world, and you will always be my favorite little boy.  I love you!
