Bed time...

I go in and here's how it goes...
Me..."I love you little man."
C...."I love you too mom- you're the best momma in the world."
Me..."You're the best little boy in the whole wide world."
C...."That's the way I was meant to be."
Me..."Do you know why?"
C...."No why?"
Me..."Because I prayed 8 years ago, I've prayed everyday since then, and I'll forever more keep praying."
C...."I pray for you too momma."

OH and yesterday morning I woke up to "look mom- I lost my tooth." Barely having my eyes open I say "cool let me see." He holds it up with pride- it has been a while since he's lost his last. The day goes by- nothing more said. I go in to tuck the kids into bed but they'd been in bed for a while so they were just about asleep but I still hug and kiss them. I whisper to C..."did you put your tooth under your pillow?" Remember he's almost asleep- but manages to mumble out "mom- there's no such thing as the tooth fairy." (Hear the sarcasm I share here)
I couldn't help but laugh and kiss him on the forehead.

AHHHHH isn't life just grand?!? I love my life, my husband, and my kids- most of all I love my GOD- he keeps blessing me over and over and over again.
