I love being a mom because of the little things—baby feet, sweet chubby cheeks, kisses and spontaneous “I love yous,” bathtubs filled with bubbles, and dandelions and other weeds picked by small hands and presented to me with adoration and pride. I love the world more with my boys in it—even on those long and exhausting tantrum-filled days when one kid has bitten me and the other has, well, pooped on me (because who am I kidding—this sort of stuff is part of the job too)–I’ll take all of it. — Sarah Jio, VitaminG
