Bedtime

Last night the sweetest thing happened.

We came home from the gym and I told the kids to potty, brush their teeth, and get in their beds.

I went to check on their progress expecting to find kids being silly and instead there was cute Malachi just finishing up brushing his teeth like a pro.  When did he get so capable?

It just made me smile as I stood in the doorway watching him rinse his toothbrush under the running water, bang it on the edge of the sink to get the water off and then turning off the faucet.

He turned around from where he stood on the stool at the sink and asked me, "will you lay with me" and I did.  

We read Winnie the Pooh and Malachi of course laughed at the part where they are painting Eeyore.

Sometimes things just go right, just right.

My big boy, my big 3 year old boy, I love you.
