Tonight I was reminded of the blessing that children are. Everyone had gone to bed early except for Sam and I. He and I stayed up to watch a little TV. While we were sitting on the couch Sam decided I needed a neck rub. So he rubbed my neck for a short time. Then he got up went to the other room and brought back a sleeping bag, blanket and pillows. He put the sleeping bag and blankets on me and asked, "Do you need a pillow on your feet?" He knows me - my feet are usually cold so I end up putting something heavy on them like a pillow. So after giving me pillows for my feet, back, and head he offers to rub my arms. This went on for about 20 minutes. What a perfect way to end the evening - getting to enjoy a special time with Sam.
I really enjoy my special times with just one of my children. I like to observe how they are different from the other ones. We are blessed! Taylor is enjoying school with Sam and as she said, "I like school mom, because I get to see the O'Briens and Hopes too."
