Dear Children,
I want to tell you about something I used to do when you were three years old. At the end of naptime, I would turn on the hallway light, leave the door to your room open, and sit on one of your stools at the foot of your beds. I would gaze adoringly into your sweet sleeping faces. I would kiss you gently on your smooth, delicious foreheads.
I would then tickle your noses and bellies to wake you up. I don't think you liked that part very much.
Love,
Mommy
Just lovely!
ReplyDeleteI can't go to sleep without checking on my girl, smiling at her while she sleeps.
oh, but isn't it nicer sometimes when they're sleeping?
ReplyDeleteThey are so delicious when they are sleeping.
ReplyDeleteAnd sometimes it IS awfully tempting to rouse them...
So glad you're back!
