Dont take it for Granted!!

We are all tired at the end of the day and when we finally get the kids to bed and sit down to finish up our own things before we can get to bed, we can always count on hearing that sweet little voice from down the hall say again for the thousandth time "I LOVE YOU MOMMY"! and we sigh cause we know that little boy should have been asleep awhile ago, but dont forget to say it back!I know I would never want any of my children to fall asleep doubting my love for them, even though Im almost positive that he is just saying it as a way to keep himself awake, I dont know that for sure, it could be maybe he was thinking of something that happened during the day that I wasnt there for, or maybe he is thinking of something that scared him and he just wanted to make sure Im still there and he is safe. Either way, you never know when or if you will be able to say it again, or if they will be there to hear it! Cherish the time you have with your loved ones because it wont last forever!! Dont take them for Granted!
