mom's bed

What is it with these kids about needing to be in mom's bed? Jen has a headache today. What does she do? She is sleeping in *my bed. When someone is sick, where will you find them? In *my bed. Jeff gets upset about something? You'll find him in *my bed. My bed is to my kids like chicken soup to a miserable cold.

I guess it all goes back to my "open bed" policy from the time they were born. My bed has always been the place to snuggle when things are bad and wrestle when things are good. I'm glad I've been able to provide that peace and comfort thru something so simple. I guess you can call it their security bed. :)
