The sweet smell of children

There is nothing more wonderful than a sleeping child.  Not least of all because it means they have finally shut-up and stopped asking endless questions!  However, the thing I love most about my sleeping kids is their unique smell ...a combination of sleepy breath, sweet sweat and farts.  I just love it!  I can't get enough of it.  Their rosy cheeks, soft skin and delightful scent all serve to remind you that there is something truly wonderful about being a mother   ...most of the time.  In fact, there's nothing better than giving a sleepy child a big kiss to remind ourselves it's all worthwhile.
