I Hope

I hope, with all my heart, I never forget the way my little boy looked at me tonight while singing "I'm a Child of God" to him during bed time. He looked at me with such love and admiration and a touch of playfulness. He just sat there, looked up, and listened to me. Those beautiful deep ocean blue, almond shaped eyes are everything to me. I wanted to laugh because he was being such a sweet heart. Tonight was probably one of the easiest nights I've had putting him to bed.

I hope he always loves to laugh and play with me. I hope I never resent him. I hope he learns to be patient and kind. I hope he never loses that wonder and curiosity in his eyes. I hope. I hope. I hope.
