Seven Hours, Baby!

After conquering imaginary spider webs, bees, beetles, giants, and monsters, and two trips back to bed, River kept her word. "You are safe, you are loved, night night," and she turned on her tummy to sleep.

I really felt for her, that turning away from certain comfort, toward the aloneness of the night and the dark.

I woke every hour or two and checked the clock, and opened my eyes in the morning to little footsteps running down the hall. Opening the door, she whispers, "Mama, the sun is waking up!"

Glorious. Seven hours of uninterrupted rest.

So I don't get too spoiled, just thought I would add a few babies to the mix.....welcome to our new little boys. We think we'll call them Sage and Cedar.
