GoodNite, Sweetheart
June 15, 2009
My kids? They are growing up. Yesterday my third son turned 12. TWELVE?!? How is that even possible?
I can still remember their chubby little hands blowing me kisses while I stood in the doorway. I can still see their tiny bodies swallowed up by their gigantic beds. Our evenings were a set routine of bath, stories, songs, and finally sleep. I used to long for the days that I would no longer need such an elaborate bedtime routine, days where I would be able to just breezily kiss them goodnight and they would go to bed on their own. I had a hard time believing that day would ever come. So many nights I would try to rush and escape from their room before they noticed.
Who would have thought that now, all these years later, I miss it.
