I've had so many beautiful parent-child moments with my own kids that I wouldn't even know where to start, but something happened the other night that makes me smile when I think about it now, although it's one of those times when you don't realize you've had a "moment" until you think back on it later.
I had taken a shower and when I came out Wyatt was asleep in my bed. I decided to let him stay there and climbed in next to him. I soon realized that he was in the middle of a bad dream. I laid there for a minute and wondered whether I should wake him up or not, and then I had another idea. I put my arm around him and whispered into his ear, "It's over now. Let's go get some chocolate ice cream with sprinkles." He immediately calmed down (apparently having incorporated my words into his dream). A few seconds later his lips started moving as if he was eating.
Dream altering. Now that's love. =)
Jam it back in, in the dark.
