Sleepless in Texas
 

As I lay me down to sleep...I love to think on the wonderful services and the places of reference in my life.

My 'Happy Place' is sunset on Clearwater Beach with the sound of the waves gently caressing the shore.

When I was a child and had scarey dreams the Lord spoke to me through His word about laying my head down and not having to fear as he would let me rest in sweet peace.

What do you think about as you lay your head down at night?

When we go to bed at night, I flip on my bedlight, grab whatever book I happen to be reading at the moment, and give Walt a backrub while I read my book. Then he does the same for me. That's our regular nightly ritual.

Nothing can put me to sleep better than that. Believe me, when Walt was in the ICU and then in the nursing home, it was harder than I ever thought it could be to go to sleep because he wasn't there to do our nightly backrubs :(

I actually pray to help me go to sleep. And recite the 23rd Psalm in my head.

I lay down in my bed and say a prayer... then my next to oldest daughter who is here for the summer comes and climbs in bed with me and gives me a wonderful back rub (just began to be able to have her do this so its awesome!) then each of the kids come in and we each say a night time prayer together and they tell me if they have a concern about something that happened each day and then we each must leave the room by telling each other something we appreciate about each other.... then it sounds like a scene from the Waltons (on purpose because my son saw the show once and thought it was so cool lol) so we all say goodnight then off to sleep!
