One of the many, many benefits to being a mama is getting to enjoy your childhood again. I know that some mamas did not have the childhood they wanted, but it gives them the opportunity to make sure their babes have fond memories.
We decided to pick up some games for my eldest son's birthday coming up: Guess Who, Ants in the Pants, and Candy Land. I remember times I played these games with cousins, friends, etc. It makes teaching and playing the games fun again.
I also can not wait for the holiday season! Nathan may not understand Santa Claus completely, but he will enjoy the lights, sounds, smells, family, etc of the holidays. How fun!
It has even occurred to me how much I enjoy playing his trucks and trains with him...imagining the sofa is a mountain the truck climbs up or that a french fry is an airplane :)
Happiness in the simplest things...what an amazing gift he has given to me!
