As I laid there, I reminded myself that someday he won’t need me like this. I felt his hair under my chin and listened for the even sleepy breathing that didn’t come. He squeezed my hand with fingers that were SO teeny not long ago- and now write and tie shoes. He flopped and twisted - so unsettled; and rolled into the tightest ball, pressing his knees to my front, head into my chest, finally starting to breathe more evenly.And after I was sure he must be asleep, he wiggled again, looking up through heavy eyes and asked, “mom, do you know how to get the bad dream picture off eyeballs?” 🥹#parenting #momlife #teachermom #momofboys #baddreams #babiesgrowtoofast #momhacks ...
