One day A will be taller than me.
One day he'll be a man.
One day he won't want mommy hugs and kisses.
But right now, I am his earth, his moon, his sun, his sky. He looks at me and his whole face lights up. Before he goes to bed he lays his little head on my shoulder and strokes my face. He stares into my eyes and touches my face like it is the most amazing thing in the world. I want this time to last forever, but I know it won't.
I know one day he will stop finding wonder in my face, but right now, it's the best thing in the world.
This made me tear up! I know I should be doing better sleep techniques with Monkey but I love snuggling with him and those precious little moments.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a sweet post. It makes me sad that one day my daughter will not want me to hold her to sleep as she gets older. :( It's definitely the best thing in the world when they just stare into your eyes and just touch your face. It's such a sweet moment.
