Conner proudly declared that my left hand is "his hand" last night.
No one is allowed to hold it, look at it, or think about touching it.
The left hand is HIS hand.
Shortly after Conner's declaration, Caleb staked his claim upon my right hand. My right hand now belongs to Caleb.
Meanwhile, Colton with his best cave-man-communicating-grunts and defensive-tugs-upon-my-hair noted that my hair is now his property.
Motherhood - the act of giving everything you are and everything you have - is beautiful. I love that my hands belong to my kids, that my heart beats in four places at once, and that a little piece of me resides in each one of their smiling faces.
