Moment in time.

It's been several weeks since I updated the blog. Honestly, life is just getting in the way. We had a lot going on which I will update more on later this week.

I really just wanted to come on to say at this moment, on this day, my heart is very full of love for my children. I read them a story before bed, got them all tucked in with their favorite blankets and stuffed animals, and we listened to some soothing music as they fell asleep.

Every night when I put them to bed, Gabrielle hold onto my hand until after she is asleep. Sometimes it bothers my tendinitis, but then I try to remind myself that it won't be this way forever; in fact it won't be this way for much longer, I'm sure.  Every night she tries to delay bedtime by asking for extra hugs and kisses, and I delightedly oblige.

These are the moments that I cannot capture on the camera to remember later. I know: I have tried.

So, I record these moments here to remind me later, when my children will want nothing to do with me.
