What made you feel safe and loved as a young child at bedtime?

Was it your soft fuzzy “blankie”?

Perhaps your mom or dad reading you a bedtime story, saying your prayers with you, and tucking you in?

As you get ready to go to bed tonight, I invite you to think back to a time when you felt safe and loved. If you were afraid, loving arms were there to hold you. When you were cold, blankets and a teddy bear or raggedy ann doll were there to cuddle.

You are still that child deep inside. You are still safe and loved.

Goodnight.
