I am awesome..

Lillian has become very good at stalling before bedtime these days. She has a routine we do EVERY. SINGLE. NIGHT.  Recently however, she has tried to find new things to keep her out of her bed longer.

Tonight I put her to bed after brushing her teeth, we turned on her music, turned on her mobile, we prayed, I rubbed her little head and I told her what she would do when she woke up (As I do every night)

Wasn't long before I heard her yelling "go pee pee potty mommy!" "I get OUT mama" ect...

I go in to tell her to lay down and she asks me to rock her...and don't think for a second I could turn that down...she's only little for a season.

As I was rocking her, I whispered to her that she was the best gift God had ever given me, she was my miracle and my most favorite blessing. I told her I loved her and kissed her forehead, that's when she looked up at me and said these simple words.. "mommy, you are awesome."  My heart is so happy, my cup is over flowing and  Lillian Elizabeth just made my entire reason for living worth it. 

As all mommies do, I love my daughter, but hearing her express it back, is nothing short of the greatest thing I have experienced in this chapter of my life.
