Had my heart melted tonight

jazzyag · August 2011

I nurse K down to sleep in my bed and DH does A's bed time. We've been having bed time battles with A since she was born, she just has a hard time going to sleep.

Tonight DH was laying in bed with A, like he does every night, and A was talking his ear off. I was listening to everything through the wall. DH got up and told A that she didn't need him there because she was a big girl. A replied with tears on her voice "No daddy I's just a little girl" It brought tears to my eyes. She may be a big sister, but she's still just a little girl who needs her daddy to snuggle her to sleep.

She's so grown up in so many ways that I think we've been expecting her to be older than she really is. Time to take a step back and let her be little for a while longer.
