Tomorrow

Garett was going to bed one night last week. I was tucking him into bed. We had had a normal day and the next day was scheduled to be kind of routine as well. This is what he said to me, though. "Goodnight, Mom. I'm excited about tomorrow."

I love that children don't need fireworks or other shenanigans to be happy. They just need a good home with warm and happy feelings and memories to look forward to making. It warmed my heart that he is having the kind of childhood that is free from adult worries and stresses. He still looks forward each and every day to the next day and all the possibilities that it might bring.
