Bedtime with Mitchell is sprinkled with magic. Each night we either have a rock bye time or ten kisses and a head rub.
On rock a bye nights Mitchell chooses a blanket that covers us both us both up, then he melts into my lap and waits for me to start singing. Right now his favorite songs are You Are My Sunshine and I know that my Savior Loves Me. Tonight as I was rocking him he looked up at me and said, "Mom, when you sing to me so nicely it makes me feel like I'm by Jesus."
Most nights I tuck Mitchell right into his bed. On those nights he always asks me to rub his head and give him ten kisses. He counts each kiss and giggles every time I pass ten and give him a "few extras." Sometimes we do "longest kiss" in the world. Then he always says, "Mom... you're beautiful." And I always respond "And Mitchell... you're wonderful." Because he is.
ps. Today at church Mitchell put his hands on my cheeks and said, Mom, you are my sunshine.
Melting.My.Heart.
