When I get home from work at night I head right in to my sleeping kiddos rooms and kiss them good night. Every now and then, depending on how sound they are asleep, I get a smile and a sweet " I love you too Mommy" when I tell them how much I love them. It melts my heart and it deepens my gratitude for these sweet little spirits. When I was pregnant with Noah, a friend at work who raised 2 amazing kids, told me that he talked to his kids when they were asleep. He would tell them how amazing they were and how smart they were on and on he would go. It has kind of stuck with me that somehow these little sweet nothings will help my babies as they start school, hang out with friends, or anything that takes them away from my wing! I am petrified that I am doing nothing more than harm to these 3 on a daily basis. I do hope that in my crazy hugs, kisses and quiet whispers while they sleep they will know that their mom is their biggest cheerleader!!
