50 fingers waving
10 little arms outstretched
10 glittering eyes (2 squinting) smiling
10 feet stepdancing with joy
10 cuddly cheeks (2 with dimples) waiting
5 LOUD and happy voices sounding
All this for the arrival of ONE mum. Every day.
Surely, I must be the luckiest person on earth!

I agree, and the best is that you are recognizing it!!Would have been nice if Gratitude had been one of the words most frequently used?!
Love, Mum
Hi Happy Mama and Καλή Χρονιά!!
btw, i'm coming to your place at the end of February, err...almost, i'm going to Sweden :)
Sounds like a perfect recipe to me!
There is a lovely Christmas story about a mamma who wants Santa to make a clone of her. When he does, she see's the clone getting all the hugs and sticky kisses, all the "i love you mamma!"'s and she decides to give back the clone and resume being #1 mamma... I know that it will be all too soon when there are no more little hands clutching me...
You really are a lucky girl! That IS a lot of eyes staring at you in the morning!
Thanks for de-lurking over at my place the other day. It's great to meet you "officially"! I've blogrolled you so that I won't be a stranger over here! Hope you have a great week!
Actually, what I meant was... I just moved you up on the blogroll. You were already there!
That was such a lovely little post. It almost made me cry. I'm the last of nine children, and my mother always said the birth of each child was like "the very best Christmas present ever." I have no children, and single at 40, I likely never will. But I can feel the happiness and contentment that radiates from my friends and sisters who are mothers, and I think it's so very cool.
Thanks for sharing that lovely, warm thought. You are lucky, indeed. :-)
Vakkert!!!
