I came across a poem in blogland and I loved this tiny piece of it:
to lull you to sleep
is truly, more honestly
the gift you bestow me
my audacity to think otherwise
leaves me reticent
How beautiful. It does feel burdensome at times...the lulling to sleep...whether it be day or night. But what a beautiful task it is. And how blessed I am to have been given the gift of such a sweet boy to do it for.

Amen...it is such a blessing.
It was always my favorite part of the day. Treasure it now.
These days, my 10 year old trundles off to bed on his own to read for an hour before turning off the light.
