SLEEPING BEAUTY

If you are a mother, or a father, there are moments that happen with your child that melt your heart completely. Moments that make you stop and realize just how much you truly LOVE your child. It can be something huge like their first steps, first word, or even something small like a smile or a giggle. This last week I was in awe of my baby girl and it was just because she fell asleep, on our bed, while I was working and she was playing. I look over and BAM she is out. I was completely lost in her. Just staring at her. She was the most beautiful person I had ever seen. Peacefully sleeping. Her breathing so soft and her face so innocent. I was completely pulled away from my computer and lost in her. So, naturally I had to get some photos. I crept into our living room, grabbed the camera and crept back into our bedroom. Trying to be so quiet. I would have been devastated if I had awaken her while grabbing my camera. Luckily, I didn't. I think I took about 20-25 shots. I couldn't stop. She was so perfect. As I was taking pictures of her, a couple of times she actually opened her eyes and stared at me, then closed them again. It was so special and one of the best moments I have had lately. She truly is my sleeping beauty and my wildly, beautiful and sweet child. Oh, child of mine. You are mine and daddy's greatest accomplishment. We love you so much.
