Rocking Luke before bed. He is so calm. So content. We are face to face. Noses touching. Giving eskimo kisses. He is doing his "ha" laugh. Not a full giggle. But a full smile. And the most precious sound. He holds my hand. And looks right at me...
those are the moments....
Minutes later, he is rubbing his eyes. His blankey in hand. He nuzzles into my shoulder. And we just sit. I take in the love we both have for each other. Time for bed. I lay him down. Rub his head. Tell him how much I love him. Kiss him goodnight....
those are the moments....
when I understand exactly why being a mother is the biggest joy of my life!
That is the sweetest! You'll be glad you wrote that one down to remember it!
