A Whole Lot of Love

2/13/2013

0 Comments

 
So as pregnant and exhausted as I am (counting down till the first trimester is over!) I still can't sleep sometimes.  I never used to mind if Daliya came and climbed into our bed at 5am - in fact, I was happy as long as she went back to sleep for a couple hours.  I loved waking up together!  Unfortunately, when she comes into our room these days it wakes me up and I can't fall back asleep so easily, if at all.

This morning I was tossing and turning, sleepy and a little bit queasy, and just generally frustrated at being awake at 5am for no good reason.  Daliya asked me, "You feel sick?"  I said no, I'm ok.  She ignored my answer, snuggled into me, and laid there rubbing my back.

It was the sweetest thing ever!  I guess when you show a little person a whole lot of love, they can't help but give it back to you when you need it most.

I'm not gonna lie, being pregnant is hard.  Being a parent is hard.  But moments like these are just a tiny taste of how awesome it is to be a family. :)
