H called tonight to discuss plans for tomorrow. H mentioned his night last night with the kids. H wound up sleeping at our house with just the kids because he had planned to have the kids spend the night at his place but his parents were sick. I offered to stay at my parents because I did not want the kids to get sick and I really needed a good nights sleep.
H mentions that S3 and S5 fell asleep on him last night. He said that it is his favorite thing in the entire world to put them to sleep.
I realized that H was always so focused on other stuff that he never experienced these little pieces of joy with the kids. H had no idea that he was even missing anything. For the first time, H is slowing down and enjoying how amazing these little guys truly are.
