I love when Reese's bed time routine goes as planned. Watch a cartoon show and cuddle to settle down then up to bed to read 2-3 stories and few minutes later she's out. It's wonderful and I love my 45 minutes of Mommy Reese time. Some nights don't always go as planned, like last night.
My poor little Reese-cup could not get her brain to stop working. We all have night like that but it's def frustrating as a mom waiting for your kids to settle down enough to fall asleep. So I decided to let her talk to me and tell me what was on her mind to help get her ready for bed. The conversation that came out made me so proud and SOO happy I let her talk.
"Mommy, I'm pretty"
"Yes you are"
"God made me so I'm pretty"
"Yes God did make you and that is beautiful"
"God made Jesus, and he loves me. Jesus lives in my heart. But right now he's in my belly, and he's not ready to come out." (too much time around Aunt Hillary influenced that last comment I think)
I love my little girl and moments like that are all the reasoning I need when someone wonders why I will sit in her room for 30 min reading her stories and watching her fall asleep.
