"Mam-Ma"

I wasn't ready to get up yet. Kaiden was standing up in his crib ready for the day. He was babbling, making raspberry sounds, jumping up and down. I guess he was trying to get Mommy's attention. I was so exhausted for he had been waking up every hour or 2 during the entire night, wanting either to be held or fed. Or, maybe it's more than that, earache or something else. He must had done all his tricks to make me going except for one thing. He said "Mam-ma", Mam-ma". That certainly made me get up. Oh, it felt heavenly to hear him say those words for the first time. As soon as he uttered the magic words, I picked him up, and hugged him as tight as I could.
