I am thankful that I had the opportunity to put my boys to bed tonight. I attend school at night. I don't always get to do this. Tonight, I held each of them, and sang them a song. And heard their random, funny thoughts. The way that DJ makes a "jumping man out of his hands," and how Louis could have his back scratched all night. Benny whispers things I can't understand into my ear. I cherish this night.
Thanks for making me cry. I kick myself every night for being so impatient with my kids at bedtime. I needed to read this so I can relax and enjoy those few extra minutes every night. I sure love you, linds. You are such a lovely mother.
