Tonight, I was rocking Genevieve before bedtime. So, let's set the scene:
Jammies are on, lights are out, Jocelyn is already sleeping in her crib in the same room, and I am rocking Jenna in the glider.
Jenna: Mommy, I wanna "pway."
Mommy: No, Jenna, it's not time to play, it's time to go to sleep.
Jenna: (a little more whiny) Mommy, I wanna "pway."
Mommy: No Genevieve, it's not time to play, it's time to go to sleep.
Jenna: (a lot more whiny) Mommy, I wanna "pway."
Mommy: Oh, you want to "pray?"
Jenna: Yeah
Mommy: Oh, that's so cute! (That part was just said in my head though.)
So, I pray for her (part of which she repeats after me) and then when we are done, she looks up at me and in one sentence she says:
"I love you mommy, I miss you."
I couldn't help but rock her a little more. :-)

That's so sweet Carrie. As I was walking out of Karli's room last night, she said 'I love you so much mom'. Now, hopefully our second daughters love us as much :)
