I was lying in bed with my 2 youngest children last night. That is certainly NOTHING new. There usually is at least a couple of children in bed with me each night. But instead of making my usual threats..."Lennon, be quiet or I am gonna put you in your crib!" or "Julia, it is time to be quiet now!"-I enjoyed every random quip, savored every song. I laid in that bed and tried to commit all of Lennon's facial expressions to my permanent memory. I tried to remember every word, every question, every sound. I kept thinking about how fleeting this time in their lives will be. Sydney is only 9 and she never begs to get into bed with me at night anymore. Soon, my evenings will be silent. Soon, they will no longer crave my presence. I vow to treasure them. EVERY moment.
