This is our family’s Buzz doll. He is well “loved” –note the missing legs, half an arm, and wings that have been crudely reattached with electric tape.
Sometimes I feel like this Buzz doll. I look into his eyes and am filled with fear that I might not survive the 70 pounds of “love” I am pummeled with all day long.
There are times when Grady, Buzz and I hold each other and make a run for my bedroom. We lock the door behind us and take a little time-out from all of this “love”.

I read this OFTEN and think of what an amazing word picture this is!
I think ALL mothers can relate to this feeling you have so well described with this BUZZ!!!
I LOVE YOU! I APPRECIATE THE MOTHER YOU ARE!

This is perfect. I can relate because I have three boys 5, 3 and 3 months and I feel exactly as you described. Its a crazy but fun ride, right?
