Sometimes she melts my heart

Tonight as I was putting Clair to bed there was heavy rain all of the sudden outside. She proceeded to act a bit scared and started to ask what happens if the thunder shakes her bit. I told her it wouldn’t happen. She said it might. She said it happened once before and she had to run to me and have me hold her.

She then asked me, “Mommy, do you know where I feel safest? “

I said tell me where Claire.

She responded with, “in your arms snuggling  mommy. “

I love the innocence and the honesty that she shares with me sometimes.
