... and by night, I mean 5:00 am! For some reason, homegirl did not do her typical pass out and go back to sleep after one of her night feedings. So what exactly did that mean? Rocking on glider, talking to her, and finally (out of desperation)... lying her down next to me in bed (although it's totally against Kaiser's orders) and letting her fall asleep in bed with us as I continue sticking a paci in her till she finally passed out.
As the two of us lay in bed together, ignoring Daddy's snoring, I was stroking her hair, hoping that that would help put her to sleep. As we were both lying there, her eyes were slowly giving out while gazing at me. I don't know if it was because I was extremely tired and delusional, but at that moment, she looked like the cutest baby in the world (no offense, Lucas, you're the cutest boy in the world though!). Her little hands were holding onto my index finger and I think we both slowly just passed out together.
I remember thinking that I wish this could go on forever (no, not the stay up at 5am); being a good mother to her, coaxing her and comforting her through all stages of life.To have that special bond only a mother and daughter can have.
