Just Because

Close your eyes when you hug them tight.  

Cave to the request of pancakes. For the third morning in a row.

Kiss them. Over and over for no given reason.

Forget about the dirty kitchen and overflowing laundry. 

Laugh when you shouldn't even be cracking a smile. 

Issue grace in the same measure they issue it to you. 

Skip nap time for the sake of fun.

Drop every reason not to and think of a reason to. 

Let 'em get dirty. Even after bath time. 

Forgive and cuddle. 

Tuck them in. Beside you, in your bed every once in a while.  

Pull them close and tell 'em you love them. Once, twice and three times more. 

Savor them.
