read and sing to me momma please

last night nolan wanted to get in bed with me and asked me to read a book to him. i told him to go get one and then he could jump in bed and we would read. well, he came back with one of my all time favorite books. BUTTERFLY MORNINGS. if you all do not have this book i highly recommend it. anyway, i read the book and when i was finished nolan said "i like that book". i said "yes, i like it too". so we laid there for a second or two and then he asked "momma will you sing to me"? o.k. i don't have the best voice, but i said "sure sweetheart i will sing to you, what to you want to hear"? he said "jesus loves me". so i told him you have to close your eyes and then i will start singing. he closed his little eyes and i started singing. i was laughing to myself, because i had my eyes closed a little and could watch him and he would open his eyes and look at me and then close his. it was funny. anyway, after i sang i opened my eyes and nolan looked at me and said "i like that song". i said "yes, sweetheart so do i". then he just rolled over said "i luv you" and fell asleep. i laid there and watched him for the longest time wondering what he was dreaming about, that sweet face and those little sweet hand tucked under his chin. boy, it doesn't get any better than that.

Boys are just something special that words can't describe.
