On this day, I’m thankful for Snuggle Time. Every night we have a routine: homework, supper, baths/showers, snuggle time, then off to bed. We’ve had this type of routine for years. It’s a time we all look forward to every day. Snuggle time is when we all pile in our bed and watch T.V. together. We mostly end up talking or reading together. The kids like to pick a video on YouTube and we’ll watch and discuss what we’re watching. Sometimes one child will choose to read a book while the others take turns picking a video to watch. This time of the day is a true blessing to me. I love the fact that we all come together as a family and spend time with each other. Even if Jason is on TDY or deployment, we keep up this routine. Some nights this is when he is able to call or facetime with the kiddos before bed. Some nights I’ll have to console children as they’re missing their daddy. Some nights we all just lay there and watch videos or a show in silence. Snuggle time is an important time for us as a family.
I’m truly grateful to the Snuggle Time we have as a family. I feel it helps us stay connected and in tune with each other. Even on the bad days, Snuggle Time is the one time we know we can just relax and be together.
