and a small glimpse into the world she knew pre-us.
This conversation took place as I was tucking Lucy in the other night.
I sometimes think this is Lucy's favorite part of the day.
This sweet girl just adores being tucked snugly into bed and kissed goodnight...
and now I think I may know why.
For the sake of this piece, I will refer to the hospital she was in as "R".
Lucy: "R" no brush teeth.
Me: You did not get to brush your teeth when you were at "R"?
Lucy: No, no brush teeth at "R".
Me: Well now you can brush your teeth!
Lucy: YAY!
Lucy: No kiss at "R".
Me: No one kissed you at "R"?
Lucy: No kiss night night at "R".

Me: Lucy, you will never have to go back there.

Me: You will be here forever and I will always be your Mommie - forever and ever!
Lucy: YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY - forever and ever - YAY!!!!!
Thank you Lord for providing the way for me to be able to kiss my daughter every night...
forever and ever!
Praying for the millions of other sons and daughters who will never have that kiss goodnight...
