There is a time every single day that I just love...
Every day after dinner Mark takes Jacob into the bathroom for a bath. Mark does bath time every day while I do the dinner dishes. I love that Mark and Jacob get guaranteed "boy time" every day. But every night I can't keep myself away from sneaking into the bathroom at least once. I love watching them play with each other - splashing and squirting each other with the water. It's pretty perfect.
But my favorite time doesn't end there. After bath time, I get Jacob all ready for bed and he snuggles up next to Mark while he has his bedtime bottle and we read The Book of Mormon as a family. We then follow it up by kneeling together as a family for prayer. I love it.
Now here is the real kicker though. I give Jacob loves and then the boys head to Jacob's room. Mark then reads Jacob a couple books accompanied with different voices and sound effects - all courtesy of Mark. I love listening on the other side of the door.
Then Mark "helps" Jacob say his nighttime prayers. This is the greatest. This is when life seems the most perfect. I wouldn't change a bit of it!
I love my boys. And from about 6:30 - 7:30 every night I am one happy little woman.
