I do. I like what I see; I just hope I do tomorrow. Tonight, I read Lucy several stories. I tucked Natalie in for the third time. I have given her everything she could possibly need to sleep tonight. I prayed with the girls and then went to pray with the boys. After our prayer, Noah shared the synopsis of a book he is reading. And my heart is happy. He continues telling me the play by plays. He shares his like for these books. I smile and share a final, "Good night!" And he follows me out into the hall, where I stop and turn to listen to him talk about another book by the same author. I glance into the hallway mirror still smiling about the info he is sharing and again, my heart is happy. I like who I am. I LOVE these children. They can be challenging, but I LOVE them. I can do this! I am doing it, and I think I'm going to be alright! :)
I think I am getting through to them about life, learning, and how to love.
These moments are so precious. I hope we're still talking about books and things we've been reading when I'm an old lady!
