A New Perspective

I had a hard time falling asleep last night. My mind was racing and after tossing and turning for quite a while I got out of bed. I wandered to Bella's room. I poked my head in the door to check on her and realized she had kicked off all of her covers. While tucking her in again, I couldn't resist picking her up and cradling her. As She snuggled her head into my shoulder and molded her body against mine, I could feel the stresses drain away. Not wanting the feeling to end, I brought her back to our bed and cuddled her all night long.

As difficult as it is sometimes to parent her, especially these days with tantrums galore, I am forever thankful to have her. I can't imagine one single day without her. She is my heart.
