Tonight, because of the rain, I was rocking Monkey to
sleep. I had him cradled in my arms, even though he is getting a little too long to
comfortably rock-a-bye in that chair, and I was singing "The Wheels On The Bus" (for some reason, his favorite song to fall asleep to).
Randomly, for no seemingly particular reason, he took his little hand and used it
to pull my face down so he could plant a big kiss on
my lips. Then he let go, and patted my cheek with that same little hand.
And my heart just burst.
