Every night we have a little routine: After cleaning up the dinner dishes-while Cassie and Tim have Daddy/daughter time, all three (well, 4, counting Riley) of us go upstairs to get Cass ready for bed. I didn't think it particularly mattered to Cassie, but last night she showed us that she KNOWS what comes next in our routine--right after we put her in bed she said, 'talk to Jesus?' I was estatic...that's the closest thing to a "gold star" a Mommy can get!
After we talk to Jesus about our day, we tell her good night and I say, "I love you, Cassie." Her response: "I You, Mommy."
