A House, A Home

Today after I picked Brody up from Kindergarten, we passed our house on our way to run some errands. As we passed, he said, " I hate passing by our house." I thought that was an odd comment so I inquired a little further, "Why do you hate passing by our house?". "Because", he replied. "It's just so cozy there, I want to go in it!"

I thought that was the coolest thing he's ever said. Just warmed my heart immensely. What better compliment can a mom have than that her kid hates to not be at home "cuz it's just so cozy there!"

Thanks, Brody, for reminding me of why I love being a mom!


Home, that blessed word, which opens to the human heart the most perfect glimpse of Heaven, and helps to carry it thither, as on an angel's wings.

Such a sweet comment! I need to be better about "logging" all of those cute things the kids say!
