Does it get any better?

Anna stayed at her grandma Joyce's house for the last few nights while I worked, as she does each week. This evening when Joyce brought her back, I had made a quick trip to the grocery store. When I got home, I pulled into the driveway and got out of the car. My adorable little 2 year old ran as fast as she could down the driveway with her pigtails bouncing, the biggest smile on her face and a slight giggle. She threw her arms up and jumped into my embrace.  

"I miss you so much, Mommy. I'm so happy to see you!"

Does it get any better than that??

My heart soared. As hard as it is to not see her for 2 days each week, the reunion is always so sweet.

You are such a good mommy...no wonder she loves when you come home!!
