I really has a Mommy

Gratuitous Simon Photo
Last night about a half hour after Simon went to bed he woke up with a horribly loud shriek and then started crying.  I went in and tried to soothe him for a few seconds without waking him up but he'd have none of it and let out another shriek.  I picked him up right away and he immediately quieted down.  I have to say it was just about the first time I've felt like an honest to goodness Mommy.  I had flash-forwards to nights when he'll have bad dreams and Mommy will be there to let him know everything will be alright.  It wasn't a big deal but it was a very sweet moment for me.  He's growing up so fast.  He really feels like a little boy to me when I hold him rather than a baby.
