Totally heart melting

There are some days (read most days) where being a mum feels like a thankless job. I feel blessed that most of the time my kids are pretty affectionate and there are more "I love you, mum" than "You're a mean mum!" Although I'm sure that will swing the other way at some stage.

This morning as I was racing around, making lunches, changing nappies and surviving the general chaos that is morning, I noticed Lil-lil clicking away on the laptop for a nano-second. I wasn't too concerned. She's been fairly sheltered from the whole computer biz, but now does computer at school so has a little tap now and again.

This morning after I returned home and opened up the laptop, I found this:


Seriously? My heart trickled out of my chest and into a puddle on the floor. 

I love these little gems in the day. 

When was the last time your heart was caught unawares?
