Good Morning, I Love You

When I woke up as a child, the very first thing I did each morning was tell my mom and dad where I had traveled in my dreams. I flew to secret worlds hidden in the stars and dove to depths none could see. I made friends with bugs and raced through the forest with my own furry tail. Then, once I had finished my story, mom and dad would say “We’re glad you came back because we love you here.” 

Going to sleep can be a child’s biggest adventure. So, as I tuck my daughter into bed, I take a moment to remind her that when the morning sun comes up, I’ll be here waiting to welcome her home and say, “I love you.”
