Last night, like other nights before, Aidan decided to wake up for an hour and a half. Usually when he would do this I would just lay there and try to ignore him so he'd go back to sleep and eventually I would get frustrated because I wanted to go back to sleep!

But last night I realized how lucky I am to have a happy, healthy boy and that I should really just cherish EVERY moment I have with him.

So instead of laying in bed, frustrated, I decided to take everything in.

I stared into his big brown eyes because I never want to forget the feeling of how my heart melts when he stares back into mine.

I massaged his feet because everybody knows how much I love his little chubby toes.

I rubbed his head because I always want to remember how his fuzzy hair feels on my fingers.

I listened to him babble because his sweet voice always makes me smile.

I want to take everything in while I can because when the day comes where he's sleeping all night in his own bed, I'll be wishing I had.

I want my Baby to know how much his Mommy loves him and I want him to know that every moment I have with him is important to me.

Every parent should think about that, even when they're tired and just want some sleep!

I never want to regret not loving every second with Aidan ❤

Besides, we can sleep when we're dead, right?
