"Funny Story"

Tonight I was reading Elijah Brooks his bedtime story.  We have been reading the all-time classic, "Goodnight Moon" for the last several nights.  Well tonight I was feeling somewhat emotional...., why, I have no idea.  I thought it would be nice to read the beautiful story by Max Lucado called, "Just in case you ever wonder".   I was about 3 pages into the book...., tearing up with every word (just like me), and noticed that EB was getting very restless and then started hitting the book.  He would hit it and then he would close the book.  He usually will just lay his head back on my chest with his 2 lovies and paci, and listen to the story.  Apparantly he wasn't feeling as emotional as I was and he didn't want me to read that book to him.   So I put my own selfish desires aside, wiped my tear-stained eyes and began reading, "Goodnight Moon".  He immediately lay his head back on my chest, sighed deeply, and listened quietly to the story.  I guess we'll stick with "Goodnight Moon" for a few more nights.
