One of the best moments of my day is putting the kids to bed. I’m particularly fond of that little time between saying good night and them actually falling asleep. Just lying there next to the two year old and hearing her babble to herself about whatever is on her mind.
There are still days, like today, where I wish she’d fall asleep a little sooner. But, knowing that she’s on the cusp of being old enough to go to sleep on her own makes me a little sad.
