MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT BONDING TIME


In the wee hours of the night, oh I'd say about 4:00 a.m.ish is when Lu usually wakes up.

Most nights I'm next to him so when he cries out, I can let him know I'm right there, ready to rub his back and help him fall asleep again (at least thats the plan) And some nights I'm in my own bed, trying to get a solid nights sleep without a foot in face, neck or back. Lu always stumbles in to find me, softly crying out "momma". I scoop him up and am so happy to be able to reassure him, give him the comfort he needs and most of all, just be his Mom. Last night as we were laying in bed, cosy under a pile of blankets and faces nose to nose, Lu reached out, patted my face and said "you're mine".

I would easily trade months worth of sleep for those beautiful, sweet, amazing two little words.
