My Everything Plus Everything Extra

Have I told you about my Xander? My sweet, lovey dovey, handsome boy Alex? I now know what they mean when they say "A Mother is a Son's First Love". You see, I am Xander's first love. He smiles when I enter the room. He turns his head to follow me with his eyes around the room. Even when he is sitting behind me, I feel his little gaze on me. It's almost like he's worshipping me. It warms me in a way I have never felt before. From the start, Ava and I had a more tenuous and tentative relationship. I cherish the time to rock her at night when she is sleepy or sick because I don't take her affection for granted. It's different with Alex, and I think that maybe it will always be. -Mindi

Oh, he is too cute. And Evan is the same way w/ me. He is so attached to me (and vice versa). Paige, not so much. She's so independent!
