Best Morning EVER!!!

This morning, Abby and Isaac tiptoed into my room, whispering because they could see I was still "asleep." They climbed up on my bed, and Isaac gave me the sweetest kiss. Then he sat back and Abby leaned forward and gave me a kiss as well. They both started giggling and then said, "Shhhhh!!!" And Isaac leaned forward and gave me another kiss. I half opened my eyes and said, "Good morning!!!" And Isaac said, "Morning, Mom! Did you sleep well?" We hugged and talked and then I asked them if they would please go and play for a while until Daddy got out of the shower because I was really, really tired this morning. They said, "Sure!" and off they ran to play.

A few minutes later, they came in, singing "Jingle Bells" at the top of their lungs. Without opening my eyes, I said, "Can you guys please sing a little bit softer?" And they complied and finished their song. Before I knew it, they had climbed up on the bed, each of them holding one side of the base to their blocks, and Isaac said, "Mommy! Look! We brought you BREAKFAST!!!" I opened my eyes, "You brought me breakfast in bed? Wow! THANK YOU!" They were VERY pleased with themselves and simultaneously said, "You're welcome!" Then Isaac said, "You have to eat it, Mommy - it's apples . . . and MARSHMALLOWS!" I smiled again as Abby said, "And . . . chicken?" Isaac answered, "No! Not chicken! It's a yummy breakfast! Just apples and marshmallows! Eat it, Mom!" Abby said, "Oh!" and I said, "Thank you!" and we hugged and laughed as I "ate" my yummy breakfast! Then they ran off to play, content as content could be.

Wow! Mornings like these really make me wonder how I ever got SOOOO incredibly lucky!
