I don't want to forget about these moments with the hooligans...The funny things Noal says...The way Pippy kicks her legs as fast as she can in excitement when I pick her up...The way Noal calls out for me in his raspy voice saying, "lille help mumma, lille help"...


I want to take these moments in so deeply that they remain with me always...But I know as life and time goes on they will slip by...


So I am thankful for having this space to keep them alive...And I will be posting a lot more "Just Cause" blogs selfishly for myself as a way to hold on to these moments...


Moments like today...


Its been a battle trying to keep Pip's patch or glasses on lately... So today after she ripped the 3rd patch off her face, screaming in pain I was gonna call it a day...


But Noal came over & said, "tis okay mommy, we wear our glasses too." Then he marched over to her in his and said, "See Pippy, lille help." Looked at me all proud of himself and said in his raspy voice, "Just a lille help".



He then kissed her and told her she had to wear it for "5 minutes" because I tell him everything is happening in 5 minutes...




Sweet Jesus, as much as this little boy drives me right batty and is beyond a handful, his sweet, sweet heart just about does me in...
