I Love My Son

Last night it was my turn to tuck in my six year old boy. I usually climb in bed with him for 5 or 10 minutes and talk about whatever comes to mind, and we spend time snuggling. But last night I was a little distracted, as I had some things I wanted to get done before I went to bed, so I just casually leaned over him for a quick hug and kiss. "Mom, aren't you gonna snuggle me in bed tonight?" I gave him another big hug and said "there you go Bug." He put the big puppy dog eyes on and said "but mom if you lay down with me I can curl into you better." Oh, man I can't resist that. "You know the way to momma's heart, don't you?" I say. He just laughs, and I climb into bed with with him for a good ten minutes. Why did I think anything else could be more important?
