The best sound in the world

The best sound that you will ever hear is that of your own children laughing. This occurred to me tonight as I was on my hands and knees cleaning up another massacre, ahem, I mean dinner mess. There I am, in my own world picking corn up off the floor and I realize that my kids are belly laughing at each other in the playroom. I almost cried, right there, with a hand full of corn. For me, it was like the whole world stopped and it was just me sitting there listening to them laugh in the next room. And they had no idea that I was listening so intently to them, which made it even better. This is one of the things that make me love being a mom. I know they will not always be each other's best friend and that right now it's only really out of necessity because they're too young to have any other friends, but I am going to enjoy it while I can. They just make it so darn easy!
