My Happy Time

Each night after Grace has said goodnight to Duncan I go into her room and lie with her for a few minutes.  We usually chat about various things, but the main event is me singing to her.  Currently she requests "Jee – Jesus loves me this I know," followed by "night – for Silent Night" and a new addition to the repertoire is "Gace- for Amazing Grace."  Once I am finished she usually says "one" meaning just one more and she will then choose one of the above songs again – four verses is my limit.

I love this time with Grace cuddling, chatting about the day and singing to her.  It doesn't matter what the day was like, whether it was good, bad, or ugly, this is a happy time.  It's a time for me to reflect on our precious gift from God and for just a moment to stop and be completely in the moment, to be totally in love.
