I love you the mostest

I don't know if it is the pregnancy hormones, the fact that I will be going from a mom of 1 to 2, or just being a mom in general, but lately I have had this crazy fear of something happening to me at a young age and leaving my babies without me.  Now granted they have an amazing dad so I know they would be in good hands, but it just tugs on my heart.

It normally comes right after my son gives me the biggest neck hug ever and says "wuv you mommy", or when his dad gives him a bath and he insists I take over and get his jammies on him.  There are just some things that kids need their mommy for, right?


It got me thinking about ways to leave a remembrance for them no matter if i live to 40, 60, or 90.  I want them to always know how much I love them and to help remember the kisses, cuddles, and giggles.

My struggle is what are some creative ways to do so? I have a million photos and videos.  Do you put them on a CD, flash drive, save them to a cloud.  Hope that in 20+  years you are able to retrieve them off said device with the rate technology changes?  Just good old fashioned penmanship?  What if there is a fire?  AHHHHHH  these are my questions.  Share with me your ideas!!!!!
