When I said goodnight to her, I couldn't help but climb into bed with her and have a cuddle. 2 year olds aren't the best at cuddles; they are more interested in squirming out of your arms to go and explore. Or there is a jealous 4 year old around who also wants to climb on your lap! So a sneaky cuddle when she's in bed and in a sleepy mood was perfect!
I lay there watching her while Livia chatted away at me, loving the attention ('mummy, lolly, i-ceam, daturday, Nenna, bed!'). It's such a treat to just stop and adore your children. To breathe them in and feel their warmth and tell them you love them. Livia's face when I left had the biggest smile; I will be sneaking in for more cuddles soon.
