This is my FAVORITE time of the day. Dinner is done, the dishes are washed (sometimes), the house is quiet, and I get to stare into my baby girls big blue eyes as she slowly drifts off to sleep. I think about what she will look like when she is older, and who she will become. Will her hair stay blonde, or will it darken up? I think about her little giggles, and it brings a smile to my face. I wonder if I'll be able to teach this little girl everything that she will need to know to make her way through life. Can I help her make the most of life? Can I show her how to enjoy every moment? After she finishes her bottle, I get a brief snuggle, and then she wants to be put in her crib so she can go to sleep. I kiss her good night, give her a big hug, and gently place the blankets over her body, and chubby little legs. I then sneak out of the room, close the door, and get ready to go to sleep.
