Cherished Time

Today I slept in until 8, the kids were already awake playing with the toys they got yesterday. Shortly after I got up we did our reading for “More Like The Master”. Today was a nice day. There wasn’t anything special that happened really, but it was nice to get some things done that needed to be done. While I did what I needed to do the kids had some friends over to play. Kyle is gone for the night and Jim is working late, so that left Beth and I home alone. We started our time together playing a game, then headed to the library to return some items, and as long as we were there, we got a movie. So, the two of us snuggled in the recliner and watched Tarzan 2. Of course since Daddy isn’t going to be home for a little while longer, she wants to climb in bed with me. I am such a softy, I told her she could be with me. It is times like these that I realize how precious our time together is and how fast she is growing up. I am sure she will want to talk; it is amazing the conversations we have had together when no one else is around or awake. I look forward to nights like this and I know I will cherish these days forever.
