Even if I hadn't experienced this first hand on my own sleepovers with your children--I would cry--as it is just so lovely to behold your intense love for each other. Even when they do sleep with g'ma--we never get it quite right. They sweetly tolerate my offkey rendition of Twinkle Twinkle, let me pray my pithy prayers, eventually sighing a big sigh as they think about their Mommy--and how she isn't there. You have laid a foundation of trust, acceptance, creativity, joy, and and and and and . . . I do not know any family more blessed than yours. You’ve made me cry.
