The bedtime routine is always the same, and takes no less than 45 minutes. Cuddling in my bed, watching a show, having a snack, taking vitamins, brushing teeth, reading books and finally singing a song... THE song. It's the same song every night. It's the song my mom used to sing to me when I was little. It goes:
Have I told you today your Mommy loves you...
Have I told you how important you are to me...
Have I told you that I need you and I care about you....
Have I told you what a blessing you are to me.
Typically when I sing this, the kids are laying down and I'm rubbing their backs. Tonight, Caleb rolled over, got this wonderful little twinkle in his eyes and SANG IT BACK TO ME.
Aaaaahh, music. Sweet music.
Good night to all. I'm off for a late girls night out. We're seeing 27 Dresses, and I'm leaving with a smile on my face and a full heart. Aaaaahhh, sweet music...
