The little things

I am tired this morning because I did not sleep well.  It is more along the lines of I just stayed up too late.  Sunday nights you will usually find me and my little one (who is almost 13 now) watching Once Upon a Time from 8 to 9 pm.  Then we usually head off to bed. She still has a week of vacation time left, so I told her I am tired and going to bed you make sure you are in bed at 10.  Well I was not quite asleep, I was almost in the I am kinda hungry place when she comes in the bedroom and says dad, you want to make some soupy?  Our dear friend Sherry sent some Korean type of ramen soup home with us the other day.  She asks if I want anything, I say a grilled cheese and she makes me one and leaves the dog with me while they finish making their soup.

I love the late night chit chat, the being all bundled up while we sit in my bedroom.  It is just they types of moments that make parenting all worth it.

I don't think I got back to bed until midnight but that is OK, I loved it.
