Addie had a hard time going to bed tonight but every time she comes out of her room she just sits at the top of the stairs and waits for me to put her back in her room and doesn't even put up a fight.
But she really wanted me to lay next to her so she got me a pillow and covered me in a blanket. Every time i would start to get up she would push me back down and say "hold you". When i asked her if she wanted me to sing her a song, she decided she wanted to sing me a song, after a couple different renditions of ring around the roses she was ready to sleep.
she held my hands while she fell asleep and as she was falling asleep (like big heavy eyes and mumbling) she said i love you mommy and 2 seconds later she was out like a light.
it was one of the highlights of the last two years of my life
and even better, Addie is so close to being potty trained. This was a really good week and she seems to understand it all of a sudden... hallelujah

I had nice piano music playing while I read your post. It made it all the more touching. Sounds like Micah and Addie are in the same stages.
That's sweet. There is nothing better then those words from a child...and it is still as wonderful, even when they are big teenagers, or stinky twelve year olds.
What an advanced little girlie you have - potty trained and in a big girl bed! Way to go Addie! What a sweetheart.
What a sweet post. Our grandson Jace is three and he always says "hold you" I think it is so cute. oxoxox
I can remember those days, my youngest son called me Plum why I'll never know, but those are the best moments of your life. Addie is such a sweetheart, she must be a lot of company for you.
Love ya,
