in regards to my last post, my apologies to any woman who has longed to hear the word "mom" and for whatever reason has not been able to. please know i am grateful to have children in my home and know this time will pass too quickly. know too that i would probably give my right arm to hear jake utter the word "mom." at the same time, there are moments (many) where i wish i could pretend my name was "penelope" and ignore the cries (and yes, they are cries/wails/whines, etc) of help/want/tattling, etc... or just wish they would ask dad.
my apologies also to any who don't have a cute, two year old in their home who slurs together the phrase: "thank you ma" (which sounds something like - tane - U -maa) every time you do something for him. (it just melts my heart every time; i need to get it on tape before he learns to annunciate better.)

No need for apologies, April.
Seriously! Don't apologize. We know you adore them, that doesn't mean it's not an exhausting job. Your post was much nicer than I am on a good Mommy day!
