A good night to be a Mommy

We have a pretty standard bedtime routine. Take a bath, drink a bottle, read some books, say prayers, and by then Reed is so tired that we put him in his bed and he snuggles with his blanket and falls asleep pretty quickly. Tonight he was a little crabby but we sailed through the bedtime routine pretty easily (besides a little "accident" in the tub) until we put him down to sleep. He was clearly tired but was fussing and crying when we left the room. He settled right down when I went back in so I decided to go sit on the floor by his bed awhile. He laid right down and tried to get comfortable to no avail. He sat up and leaned his head close to me and came in for a kiss. He happily laid back down, trying to find a comfortable position. About every minute or so, he would sit up and kiss me between the rails of his crib and lay back down in a new position. After probably a little over half a dozen times of doing this, he sat up one more time and waved at me. He laid back down and went to sleep. I just about melted. I am so lucky to have such a sweetie pie.
