I heard his voice gently calling to me. Opening my eyes, I could see my husband beckoning me to come to bed. I had drifted off at some point in the evening while I lay reading on the couch. He takes my hand and leads me, tucking me under the covers beside him. Soon I hear his breathing relax and I know he is now sleeping peacefully.
Laying beside him I reach out to touch his hair, careful not to wake him. My heart feels so full to know he wants me near. I draw closer, putting my ear upon his chest. I want to hear more of this man.
