Moments to Remember

This post isn't as much of a post for others as it is a post for me. It's somewhat of a digital note for the "motherhood memories" section of my brain.

Because I hope to never forget the sweetness of this evening.

Bedtime has been rough around here lately. We're changing up our routine a bit, and Natalie doesn't quite have the hang of it yet. We're getting there, but it's still rough. Tonight she went down really easily after just a short bit of singing and bouncing, but she woke up crying an hour later, so the singing and bouncing continued. As she laid cradled in my arms with her eyes closed, she puckered up her lips, leaned forward, kissed me, then laid back in my arms.

My heart melted right then and there. Nights like these are rough, but they're so so worth it.
