Dear Little Sister,
You are still so tiny. You fit like a snug little bug in the corner of my left arm. You are slightly propped up against my chest and I hold on to your left leg- voila- the perfect chair for my perfect girl.
During the day we have lots to do... up and down the stairs with brother, doing dishes, vacuuming the floor... and most of the time you stay perfectly content tucked there in my arm. My right hand is free to do all that a mommy needs to do.
Sometimes I look down and am surprised to see that you are still wide awake- watching the world around you, not wanting to miss a thing. Other times you have slipped into a restful slumber and are fast asleep.
When you are asleep and brother is being noisy I put you down in your room to give you a more peaceful nap. But guess what? In a matter of minutes you are awake- you love the noise of our life. It is a comfort to you.
You are able to sleep all night long in your own bed, so I am not worried.
As long as you are comfortable there, you are welcome to stay tucked in my arm.
Love you Sweet Girl,
Mom
