Proud Mommy Moments--Hands On

Each night we go through the same bed time ritual.  It starts with the five minute warning.  Then it goes into, "I'm not tired." Followed by hiding, or making himself "small."  i.e. he curls up into the smallest ball and tucks his head down toward his chest.  After the usual threats, and counting to three he gets ready for bed.

We read a story, sometimes two.  We take turns with the pages.  He is doing really great with his reading.  After we read, we say a prayer and then he gets kisses and a raspberry on each cheek.  I don't know why.  It's just something I've always done with him.  He laughs.  Sometimes he returns the favor.  Last Thursday everything was going just like always.  Then after the prayer and the kisses my son, my blue-eyed heart breaker, smiled up and said, "I had my hand on your boob when you did that!"*
Yep.  My son.  Lock up your daughters!

I am participating in EmmyMom's and Kmama's "Proud Mommy Moments."

*  He has always had an obsession with my chest.  It must be a boy thing.    I have no idea.*
