the protector

MB has been sleeping with me the whole week while hubs was away. he loves sleeping in our bed. it’s as tho the smell of his parents gives him better sleep.

last night i asked him to sleep in his own bed. all the kids sleep together; baby bu in his cot, MB on the lower bunk and AG on the higher (closer to the stars, she says)

anyways, MB came into my room at 4+ AM to ask me to turn on the light coz he needed to pee. since he was at it, i decided to go too. when i got back to my room, i found him in my bed fluffing the pillows and making himself comfortable …

me : what are you doing in my bed son?
MB : so poor thing you ....you are sleeping alone
me : it’s ok, i don’t mind it
MB : i will protect you
me : what about your brother and sister?
MB : *matter of factly* dun worry, jesus will protect them

then he kissed me, turned over and in an instant, started snoring. definitely his father’s son.
