Thank Goodness for the Goodness of Moms!

Well, today again I realized how much I need all the moms in my life. After the most bizarre and furious 45 minute screaming spell from our Lucas today, I was in a tizzy for answers. Why the crying? Why so loud? Why so terrifying? What should I do? Am I qualified to handle this kind of screaming?

It hit me...I need a mom! The internet was no match for this kind of question! No book could help me feel better about the obvious misery my littlest guy was suffering. I couldn't reach my mom, so I called on...MRS. BENOIT! For those of you who may not know her, Mrs. Benoit is the greatest neighbor that anyone could ever have asked for, and since she did raise three excellent children, I used my lifeline and made the call. Man, am I glad I did. She assured me that all would turn out OK in the end, and darn it if she wasn't right.

What would we do without all of the moms (biological or otherwise) we are so lucky to have? I, for one, would still be freaking out about an infant's crying jag. So watch out, moms, I may be calling you next! Thanks, Mrs. Benoit!!!!
