What Kids Say

I think I have to be the luckiest mom ever. Today I was having a hard time with feeling alone and just adjusting to moving and maybe some postpartum stuff, and was crying on the phone to Rhett. I was telling Rhett that I really wished I could have a hug or someone to just cry on. A few seconds later I feel a tug on my leg and Kylee wrapped her arms around me and gave me a big old hug. After I got off the phone with Rhett, she hugged me again and told me she didnt want me to be sad and then asked why I had purple tears (mascara running down my face). All night Kylee kept asking me "are you happy now mommy?"
I wasnt really sure if I should tell this or even really wanted to tell this, but I feel that it was so sweet and such a tender moment, I really wanted to show how wonderful life can really be... and that people are real. I am someone who most people, when first meeting me, wouldnt know I struggle with self-esteem and depression. I am open about this because I believe that there are people out there who may need to hear it. But something I learned tonight was that I am incredibly lucky for my two SWEET and CARING wonderful children. I am truly blessed.
