My Job Comes with Love Notes


Dr Laura:

I am a mommy to three really great kids. They are 7, 5 and 18 months. I am also a photographer for babies, children and families, but only accept photo sessions when my kids can be home with their daddy. I am up late at night editing after my kids are in bed -- all to help bring in extra income so I can continue to be an at-home mom.

Last night I was up editing after the kids went to bed. I walked into the kitchen to get some water and saw a note laying on the counter from my 5 year old. She must have left it before I put her to bed. In big crayon lettering it said "I Love. For You."  

My heart turned into mush. What other job out there leaves you love notes? On any given day I could show you 2-3 "I love you" drawings all for me. I am the center of their entire world. 

They may not say thank you every time I make dinner, wash clothes, or play in the sandbox with them for an hour. Their little hearts think of me when they think of love, and that is more than enough for me.
