My boys!

This morning, we were busy cleaning the house.  Jacoby is such a good helper these days and he was busy spraying and wiping down the table, his favorite job.  We were listening to music and the song "Love" by sugarland came on.  I told him that when I was in labor with him that I listened to that song a lot.  Elisha and Rob had sent it to me the week before so we took it to the hospital with us.  After we were all done cleaning, Jacoby asked to hear it again so I turned it on.  I was sitting and nursing Jace and Jacoby was next to me perched up on the couch.  I was completely overwhelmed in that moment looking at him.  He looked so big!  His big blue eyes were looking at me and he kept smiling at me, listening to the song.  I started crying.  All I could think was I should still be nursing him.  There is no way that enough time has passed since that day in the hospital when he was born for me to have this big boy looking at me and another baby nursing.  I told him that I loved him and he jumped down and came and sat next to me concerned that I was crying.  He hugged me and asked why I was crying and I told him he was just so big and I loved him so much.  He told me that he would always be my Jacoby and then asked me if I knew how much he loved me.  I said yes as big as an airport to which he answered yes, mama I love you bigger then an airport and that is soooo big!  He then snuggled in next to Jace and I held them both.  Pretty soon it turned into a tickling game and they were both giggling and laughing.  Jace was still attached nursing and would pull off to giggle and then go right back to nursing.  It was such a beautiful moment with my boys.  I love them so much!  I am overwhelmed often with the amount of love that I feel for them.
