I took my daughter Ellie to her room tonight to put on her pjs, lavender lotion, give her kisses and a bottle and usually, she's ready for the crib. But tonight was different. She looked at me and laid right on my chest....and I rocked. And rocked. For somewhere around 20 minutes I held her against my chest and rocked her....and she let me. She sat up once to give me a big smile and then laid back on my chest.
Ellie's getting so big now - she turns one in a week and is on the go. She even took two steps tonight! She has a lot of energy and she's so happy and healthy. And with that comes less cuddling time in my arms...she likes to squirm around....so when she laid on me tonight the first thought that came to mind. I won the lottery. This is what it feels like to be rich. I am BEYOND blessed.
