So Sweet : )

Malachi did the sweetest thing tonight. I had already put the boys down for bed this evening. I had to play their primary song CD because my neighbors two houses down from me was having a party and they were incredibly loud!! To say the least. Anyway the music helped the boys and they went to bed. Malachi who out of the three boys hardly ever wakes up in the middle of the night, woke up tonight. I asked the usual questions such as are you okay, do you feel sick, are you hurting, do you need to go potty? All those lovely questions. He replied no to all of them. Then he climbed onto the arm of the chair next to me, put his arm around me,looked at me and said Mom, are you feeling lonely? It took me by surprise. I was totally not expecting that one tonight. I looked at him and said no buddy I am okay I am talking to Grandma right now. He then put his head on my shoulders and cuddled for a moment and then asked if I would tuck him in again. How sweet is that! Makes me almost cry. They are really in tuned. I needed that tonight. I have been feeling so worn out and just tired and a little down since Kate and Mal left. I have been okay though just at night it can be lonely when my hubby isn't there. I am happy to say that Tuesday he will be home! Also that his SGT came to the house to pick up something and said to me that he didn't want to see my hubby at work until Thursday! So we can have some time together before he starts working again!! What a Great boss for one and two we are just really blessed! I Love my husband and children. I am blessed to have such sweet boys. : ) I just thought I would share that. : )
