Snuggle Time
Day 30. I am grateful for snuggle time with all of my children.
For the most part all of the kids go down for bed pretty easily. Until recently that is. In the last couple months, Piper has made it a habit to snuggle with Justin before bed. I'm okay with that, because it gives me time to get the other kids ready for bed. Plus, I know Justin really likes that time with her.
Well, Justin has been sick, and last night he wasn't up for having Piper downstairs with him, so I attempted to put her down sans snuggling. She was not having it! So, after letting her cry for a while, I finally decided to take a break from my cleaning, and I cuddled with her until she fell asleep. It didn't take long at all, and it was nice to just sit and enjoy holding her.
I enjoy cuddling with the other kids when I can too!
Deuce is almost 6, and he still asks me to snuggle with him in bed pretty often. I know that it won't be long before he won't want to do that at all. But until then, I love that we can have that one on one time together, just talking and cuddling.
Margo and Josie usually get there snuggle time with me at the same time, since they share a bed. They'll request that I squeeze in between them in the bed and read to them or just lie there with them.
And we can't forget about all the nights that one or more of the kids crawl into bed with us...
Snuggle time is a wonderful part of being a mom, and I love it!
