可愛らしい
アクセサリー入れなんですって。

「ここはボウでぐいぐいとやったの、ゆびわをいれるの」
こんな感じ
真ん中の桜の押し花のようなのは
学校のプレイグラウンドでヒメが拾ってきたものだそうです。
得意そうにプレゼントを渡してくれて、説明をしてくれてる様子に
ウルウル・・
なんて嬉しいものなのでしょう。。
以下、少し長いのだけど、
母の日によせて素敵な詩をいただいたのでご紹介。
Before I was a Mom
-Anonymous
Before I was a Mom,
I never tripped over toys
or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn't worry whether or not
my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations.
Before I was a Mom,
I had never been puked on.
Pooped on.
Chewed on.
Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind
and my thoughts.
I slept all night.
Before I was a Mom,
I never held down a screaming child
so doctors could do tests. Or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night
watching a baby sleep.
Before I was a Mom,
I never held a sleeping baby just because
I didn't want to put her down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces
when I couldn't stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small
could affect my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mom.
Before I was a Mom,
I didn't know the feeling of
having my heart outside my body.
I didn't know how special it could feel
to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know that bond
between a mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small
could make me feel so important and happy.
Before I was a Mom,
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night
every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth,
the joy,
the love,
the heartache,
the wonderment
or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much,
before I was a Mom .
ヒメ、私をママにしてくれて本当にありがとう。
