Just A Minute

We had a late night last night, 9:30pm. Breeanna urged me to tuck her into bed. I told her to go ahead. I'd be there in a minute. I packed away the groceries, did the dishes. Thirty minutes went by. Breeanna came to the kitchen wrapped in blanket and sat on my lap. She said in a sleepy tone that she had been waiting for me. I encircled her entirely in my arms and said, "Mommy will be right there." as I sent her back to bed once more. With a tender sleepy voice she said, "OK mommy,' and headed back toward the bedroom. I thought to myself, "I could move mountains for that voice.".
