____Now that Jennifer Lopez is done touring and filming American Idol, the Boricua mami has had more time to hang out with her 7-year-old twins Max and Emme. I never thought I would witness J.Lo "slow down," but the time off seems to be allowing her to create more beautiful memories with her little ones. A week ago she posted the image above and wrote, "I spy a little angel on my shoulder." How sweet! There's nothing like the bond between a mother and daughter. J.Lo didn't stop there. Today she shared the most adorable photo with her "mini me," also known as her "coconut," and it's going to melt your heart!

Now this is a frame-worthy selfie! The lighting is just beautiful. J.Lo wrote the simple caption, "Happiness." There are those moments as a mom that you really just feel like you're winning in life. The simply joy of watching your children grow up is such a blessing.
As a mom-to-be, I can't wait to share lasting memories with my little boy. They say the most rewarding job in life is being a mother and I strongly believe that. J.Lo may have money in the bank and a successful career, but I'm sure her greatest life accomplisment is being a mom to those cute twins. Especially after her split from their dad Marc Anthony, Lopez made it a point to be the stable force in their lives.
Since Lopez ia a workalic, I'm sure she's already planning to get her schedule filled up again, but it's nice to watch her take a step back and enjoy life with her family. That's the sweetest part about living after all.
