Norman Rockwell Eat Your Heart Out!
I just had to share...
I got home with the Maya-monster last night at around 6:30. She had napped all the way home and was peaceful, and content. She sat in her Boppy while I took care of the household stuff. Then I changed her diaper, and she smiled and cooed at me. I lifted her to me and held her close. I felt as if my heart would burst with all the love I felt. I sat down and began to nurse her. I stroked her hair as she nuzzled close to me. She finished eating and her eyes became droopy. I told her I didn't want her to sleep because I hadn't had enough time to love on her. She fought it, but was losing the battle with her heavy lids. I wrapped her in her blanket and cuddled her. As she started to drift I softly sang, "What a Wonderful World." Her eyes shut completely just as I sang, "oooohhh yeah." I kissed her tiny forehead, said, "I love you," and laid her down to sleep.
That makes it all worth it.
