I took kdp's advice. Well, maybe it wasn't advice exactly but I took it to heart anyway.
She said that she just listened to her girls at nighttime. Tried to talk as little as possible. But mostly listened and answered questions.
Tonight, I felt it would be nice to breakaway from our usual pattern of bath, brush teeth, read stories, tuck, sing, pray, kiss, close door.
I was worried they would go nuts because patterns comfort them. If I stray from the usual, will they actually go to sleep?
I tried it.
It was magical.
They have so many wonderful thoughts.
So many perfectly wonderful things to say.
It was like falling in love all over again.
They are so sweet.
I love LOVE my precious adorable babies.
Thank you kdp for an unforgettable nighttime.
What a gift!
Thank you Father for the honor of raising them.

it is one of the most special times with my children. they are relaxed and it just seems like a perfect time to talk and listen to my girls, in the quiet of the night.
aawww...that's so precious!
I tried that with Jason but he's his daddy's son! He talked so much that he awake for 45 minutes past bedtime and got himself so excited that it took another 20 to calm down
