Last night me, Bailey and Aubree made beds in my bedroom floor and settled down to watch some good ol' Goosebumps movies. I knew Bailey, being like me, after watching something scary would not want to sleep in her bed by herself, so I made hers comfy enough to sleep all night on. It was so nice laying there, just us girls, relaxing and hanging out. I know at 10, those times that she wants to spend with mommy will start being few and far between so I have to enjoy them while I can. It was quite a chore trying to get her to settle down and go to sleep once the movies were over, she kept on goofing off and making me giggle. At one point she had me laughing so hard my side started hurting. It's REALLY hard being stern when a smile is threatening to take over your face. We laughed and laughed, rubbed eachothers backs, tickled eachothers arms, and finally fell asleep. It reminded me alot of my childhood, when a friend would sleep over, we'd play the "write on your back game", to guess what the other person was writing, just usiing it as an excuse cause it felt so good to have your back tickled. Bailey and her friends do that and it makes me miss it. And also, realize that before I know it, Aubree wil be doing it too. Time really does fly, and each day we have the opportunity to either live it happy and well, or not. I like to think I've really started living mine in a good way. I honestly do have a wonderful life, with not only healthy, wonderful blessings as children, but the most wonderful husband and marriage too!!
