Most awesome little girl

Right now, Cheyenne is taking her morning nap. She usually naps for 2 hours at a time...from 10-12 and then 2-4. She goes down for her naps fairly easy usually, as long as I get her down before she gets overtired and cranky. I'm pretty good about reading her cues (rubbing eyes, etc.) She woke up about 30 minutes into her nap. We have a video monitor (couldn't live without this thing!) and I watched her. Usually she needs me to come back in and give her her paci and she'll usually drift back off to sleep. I waited and watched and she sucked on her fingers and the edge of her blankie and about 10 minutes later she drifted back off to sleep. She didn't need me. As I was sitting here watching her, I couldn't help but think that I am the luckiest person because I have her. Sure, she does normal baby stuff...gets cranky and has screaming fits, is going through teething (loads of fun) and sometimes just drives me nuts but then there are the times that I'm putting her to bed and I'm holding her in the rocking chair and she's laying with her head against my chest. There are those times that she reaches for my face and smiles. There are those times that she laughs and babbles at the faces I'm making at her. These times overshadow all the rough ones. She is the most wonderful gift I could have ever asked for. She is the most awesome and beautiful baby ( I know, I supposed to say that!) There is no better thing than being a mother and knowing what its like to carry a child, bring it into the world and care for her. My love to all the mommys and daddys. I just had to share.
