Goodnight, Honey

Even as she's upstairs snuggled in bed, my face remembers the feel of my Catie's cheeks brushing mine.  My lips know the sweet smoothness of her giggling belly as I lace it with raspberry kisses.   My palms have memorized the outline of her pajama covered tushie.  Hours later I can still feel the silky brush of chubby arms as they wrap around my neck for goodnight squeezes.  These things are with me always.  These things I know by heart.

My Jaden

My sweet girl is now a 5-year-old.  I love her so much!  She's spunky, animated, courageous, and smart.  She lights up my very existence.  Thank you, Universe for choosing me to be her Mommy.
